Paris-based visual artist and producer Federico Nessi, performing as Be My Wife, delivers a strikingly evocative single that cements the foundation of his upcoming EP, To Deliver a Feeling. ‘Only You’ is the third release leading into the full project, the track is both a milestone and a mission statement, embodying the emotional depth and theatricality that have quickly become hallmarks of this artist.
Written at the inception of the project, ‘Only You’ channels the raw spark of creative beginnings while offering a polished and forward-thinking composition. At its heart, it is a love song, but one that refuses sentimentality. Instead, Nessi probes both the beauty and the shadows of intimacy, asking: “to what extremes would we go for love?” That duality between tenderness and darkness courses through every beat.
Driving synths pulse with urgency, grounding the track in a club-ready framework, while soaring melodies weave through with a hypnotic quality. Nessi’s vocals are at once commanding and fragile, carrying an emotional weight that makes each refrain feel almost cinematic. The interplay between euphoria and tension mirrors the complexities of romance itself, making ‘Only You’ resonate far beyond its runtime.
The song unfolds like a carefully constructed canvas, layered with texture and intention, reflecting Nessi‘s fine art background. ‘Only You’ offers a glimpse into an artistic universe that thrives on experimentation, vulnerability, and bold emotional honesty.
