'What If My Body Could Love Like You' is the powerful opener of Lisa Caruso's 2023 EP 'Stretching'. Moody, broody, and dramatic, this lush track actions the desire to achieve full satisfaction in the skin you live in. Written in times of lockdowns when there was no choice but to turn inward, LC medalled with the onslaught of social media posts that entertain ideas of changing oneself to look ‘better’. Noticing the insistent damaging effects these have on society, Lisa’s song writing flowed instrinsically as she took to keyboard. Sonically personifying a 'coming out of body' ferocity in post chorus hooks, there’s a shade in dynamic with subtle melodic layers of keys and guitar, all held together with a tight drum beat before reigning in an outro with submersible vocal harmonies and a humming sub bass that binds. This hard hitting synth pop tune screams guts and authenticity, and the Music Video is no different. Filmed in a broke down deserted warehouse, there are pictures of beauty and trepidation as Lisa takes flight. Looking inward with clones and characters representing Lisa’s self and former self, being both brave and vulnerable are shown to be the keys to success.
