1.) WILDES, real name Ella Wal… Read Full Bio ↴There are several bands called Wildes
1.) WILDES, real name Ella Walker, is a British multi-instrumentalist & singer-songwriter from London.
Born to an Irish mother and British father her music lends itself to her mixed heritage upbringing. An undeniable passion for creating vast soundscapes, Ella's music is both dramatic and beautiful, reflective of her childhood summers spent running wild in the Irish countryside and echoes the expansive sound like that of Florence and The Machine or The XX. After putting up her first song 'Bare', WILDES garnered overwhelming support online, shooting to #6 in the Spotify global viral chart and subsequently grabbing the attention of BBC Radio 1 DJ Phil Taggart and Grammy Award-winning producer Brian Burton (Danger Mouse), landing her a publishing deal. The song has since featured on multiple soundtracks and generated millions of streams worldwide. Since then WILDES has been refining her sound, working closely with award-winning producer Catherine Marks (Foals, Wolf Alice, Manchester Orchestra, The Killers), fusing her indie-folk songwriting with bold cinematic soundscapes.
2.) Wildes is a musical project of Jana Pantha and Jenny Tulipa from Munich, Germany and Zurich, Switzerland.
They see themselves as an electronic disco-pop-punk project. The two musicians sing abstract lyrics in German - with a certain poetry, and at times irony. Spoken word passages and catchy sung vocals merge into melodies that once heard continue to sound for quite a while. A minimalist electro sound in combo with simple synth waves and the always driving drum computer make the works cool, playful and provocative. The rocking barré changes of the electronic rhythm guitar accompany the pieces. The distortion is brought by the banging tube screamer and the lead guitar sounds break the raw repetition.

Woman in Love
wildes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Love your enemies, maybe they can keep you in front
How would you know what I've seen, what I've done?
How would you know I'm a woman in love?
Is it jealousy keeping you from letting me go?
Why's the melody sitting like a lump in my throat?
How would you know I'm a woman in love?
I'm a woman in love
I'm a woman in love
I'm a woman in love
Queen of holding my tongue
I'm a woman in love
I'm a woman in love
I'm a woman in love
And I beat every drum
I'm a woman in love
I'm a woman in love
I'm a woman in love
Queen of holding my tongue
How would you know what I've seen, what I've done?
How would you know I'm a woman in love?
How would you know what I've seen, what I've done?
How would you know I'm a woman in love?
The lyrics of Wildes’s “Woman in Love” explore the complexities of a woman’s emotions and experiences with both love and heartbreak. The first verse speaks of bitter memories and digging up the treasure that has been sunk, hinting at the idea that the singer may be struggling to let go of past experiences. The second line is an interesting twist, suggesting that loving one’s enemies may actually be beneficial in keeping oneself ahead. The singer then questions how others can know what she has seen and done, implying that her experiences with love and heartbreak have been deeply personal and unique to her. The chorus then repeats the line “How would you know I’m a woman in love?” several times, emphasizing the idea that others cannot fully understand or judge her experiences.
The second verse questions whether jealousy is keeping the singer's lover from letting her go, and the imagery of the melody sitting like a lump in her throat suggests that she is struggling to express herself fully. The repetitive phrasing of the chorus, coupled with the assertive “I’m a woman in love” lyrics, indicates a sense of pride and strength in the singer’s identity as a woman who has experienced heartbreak but remains resilient. The line “Queen of holding my tongue” suggests that the singer has struggled with self-expression in the past, but the repeated refrain of “I’m a woman in love” emphasizes that she refuses to be silenced or brushed aside.
Overall, “Woman in Love” is a poignant reflection on the experience of being a woman who has loved and lost. The lyrics explore themes of resilience, strength, and the struggle to be heard and understood in a world that sometimes fails to acknowledge the complexities of women’s experiences.
