By the time I finished listening to “Could’ve Just Left Me Alone” for Alexa Cappelli for the seventh time, I couldn’t help but think of Winnie the Pooh. That’s because one of his most famous phrases would’ve fit perfectly in this song.
“Why bother?”
It’s a phrase most often used when we’re fed up, or question why we even dared to care. It also sums up the core of the latest from Alexa Cappelli. This song comes from a place that’s not even in the depths of someone. This is a surface area song because you can feel the anguish and irritation in every line. The narrative of this song captures what it’s like to go through the motions with someone in a relationship, only for them to leave you like garbage on the side of the road. You think, if they were just going to treat me like this – why did they even get with me in the first place? It says more about their lack of empathy for others than anything else, and Alexa Cappelli channels all of the above and then some every step of the way in “Could’ve Just Left Me Alone.”
Bad relationships make you think, why bother, but this song does the total opposite. Alexa Cappelli’s latest single, “Could’ve Just Left Me Alone” follows the release of her 2022 EP, ‘Confused @ 22.’ Dropping only four years after she made it onto Kelly Clarkson’s team on ‘The Voice,’ “Could’ve Just Left Me Alone” is a vibrant, distinct pop music moment that doesn’t waste any time. It’s one of those songs that hooks listeners within the first few seconds and refuses to let go.
