I Panic, the solo project from Dutch musician Marcel Van Tetering, is still going strong as ever as the artist is about to unveil a brand-new rendition of his single “Ordinary Things“. The gentle, Bowie-esque track gets a full MAKEOVER in an acoustic setting, relying on minimalistic production and unparalleled emotional delivery.
ORDER “ORDINARY THINGS (ACOUSTIC)” ON BANDCAMP NOW!”
His first release of 2026 finds Marcel revisiting the conflicting sentiments of “Ordinary Things” through a new light, making it feel even more intimate and authentic. The new version of the song is set against an impactful piano and hopeful string quartet that enhances the vocal performance in a way that makes the emotions blossom even more. It’s a gorgeous new format for the song, giving new perspective to the beautiful lyrics and placing them in an even more ambiguous territory between the happy memories and the sadness of the absence.
Marcel’s crisp vocals feel charming and just as fragile as they are confident as he lists everyday rituals alongside a lover. “Ordinary Things” turns the mundane into what actually makes life worth living, and there is so much earnestness in the performance that it almost feels wrong to be listening in. The new acoustic version of the song amplifies every single one of those feelings into something even warmer and closer, yet incredibly light and completely devoid of weight. The artist seems to float alongside the strings free of any doubt, turning the remembrance into a delight instead of a burden.
It’s impressive how smooth and easily Marcel accomplishes all of this, and how soft everything sounds. The hints of Billy Joel and David Bowie can still be found, but now they’re like seasoning in a heartwarming story about how love makes the daily chores feel more important than they had any right to.
On this acoustic rendition, Marcel sounds serene and fully immersed in the feeling, creating a place that exists well beyond simplistic concepts of ‘happy’ or ‘sad’ – the feeling is a condition that oscillates between both constantly. It’s remarkable, and it’s refreshing to hear such a love song, especially when delivered like this.
