“What the Hell”: Harpa’s Anthem of Defiance and Self-Discovery

“What the Hell” is Harpa’s latest single has a rock-style genre that describes the world from the perspective of a woman struggling in a male-dominated world. This song speaks to the listeners in a very unique manner and makes them feel anger, loss, and assurance at the same time through passion and great storytelling in the song. It is a strong position for a woman who is ready to go against the wind and make others think of their position in society.

To begin with, the track starts with a soft melody that builds into the first stage before the listener gets to enjoy Harpa’s voice, which is angelic yet interrogative. Throughout the scene, it is pierced with enough insight to get the tone of a woman all for boundaries placed and an audience on how her voice undertone can switch over the scene so easily for song control. Persuasion comes easily when first believing control is on eloquence. But the song builds up momentum and with it, the woman’s epiphany; she has relinquished control over herself by being pliable to the masses. The lyrics by Harpa are very deep, real and touching. This makes “what the hell” be described as a fight song or an anthem for someone who has been shunned. The chorus hits like a whiplash it has tension coupled with a cry for freedom. The beauty of the song is that it paints her struggle in such a manner that after lines like these, one cannot turn one’s head and simply ignore it.

The production is a great match for the theme. Harpa manages to infuse melodic rock with ethereal notes creating a sound comparable to that of Evanescence and Florence + The Machine. The strong and brilliant-sounding guitar riffs and ethereal-sounding supporting vocal melodies raise the dramatic highs and lows, leaving great impacts. “What the Hell” may be a song, but it is also an anthem, an anthem of acceptance and an anthem of power. Harpa narrating the stories in strong penetrative melodies secures her place in the rock world. For those in search of a song that conveys inspiring ideas and persistent motivation, this is a track you would like to add to your playlist.
