‘No Cure for Love’, which you can listen to above, is a beautiful heartstring puller about the pair’s nearly decade-long relationship that explores the ups and downs of their coupling. Didirri and Wise’s voices intertwine like lovers in bed, with their harmonies enough to bring a tear to the eye. In short, ‘No Cure for Love’ is a spectacular tune that makes you want an album from the two.
Speaking on the tune, the pair released a statement reading: “‘No Cure for Love’ was written in the wake of realizing our love can be a double-edged sword. We’ve been in a relationship for eight years, and turbulence is inevitable with anything that lasts a long time.
“During a phase of smoking weed and arguments, we could not see eye to eye. It was confusing when we’ve known each other so deeply and for so long, only to arrive at the feeling that we’re complete strangers. In those moments we considered whether the bond that tied us together was becoming too much to bear.
“The words ‘I’m too much for you’ and ‘you’re going to leave me one day’ were carelessly spoken, like a self-fulfilling prophecy waiting to happen. This song captures those moments where we have crumbled, said hurtful things, and had to look at our options.
“We came out of that chapter ready to face the challenge of our love, realising we can only love and respect each other if we do this for ourselves first. We can’t take each other (and ourselves) for granted if we want to be companions in this long journey together.”
