POLI NIKA has a voice like a memory—soft around the edges, tender at the center, and lingering long after the final note fades. With the release of her latest single Nothing Belongs to Us, the indie-pop singer-songwriter once again proves her ability to distill life’s biggest truths into something fragile and beautiful. Released on March 21, 2025, the track is a cinematic, soul-stirring meditation on love, transience, and choosing connection in a world that feels increasingly impermanent.
Rooted in POLI NIKA’s signature dreamy indie-pop style, Nothing Belongs to Us takes its time unfolding. The song begins with vintage piano tones that sound like they’re playing from another room, a nostalgic lull that draws the listener into her world. As the acoustic guitar trickles in and ambient synths drift beneath the surface, a delicate sonic landscape forms—one that evokes rainy windows, late-night walks, and long-held glances. It’s the kind of production that doesn’t shout for attention; it quietly asks to be felt.
At the center of the song is POLI NIKA’s voice—warm, soulful, and honest. There’s a certain magic in the way she sings, a subtle vulnerability that brings to mind artists like Lizzy McAlpine and Lianne La Havas. Each word is carefully chosen, each line imbued with weight. But what makes this track truly special is its lyrical intimacy. Drawing inspiration from her own life—and, in a surprising twist, from her partner’s social media posts—POLI NIKA has crafted a lyrical mosaic of shared emotion. “This song came together like a collage of moments,” she explains. “It’s really about choosing to share your life with someone who truly sees you.”
That sentiment pulses through every note of Nothing Belongs to Us. While the title might suggest detachment or loss, the song is anything but cold. It’s about surrendering to the flow of life, letting go of the illusion of control, and finding something eternal in another person’s presence. It’s the understanding that nothing material is truly ours to keep—and yet, love, in its purest form, becomes the one thing that feels real. In a world defined by uncertainty, the track suggests that maybe home isn’t a place, but a person.
This kind of thematic depth isn’t new for POLI NIKA. Her previous releases have consistently explored emotional honesty, soul-searching, and the quiet power of vulnerability. But Nothing Belongs to Us feels like a new chapter—more mature, more grounded, and more at peace with the chaos of life. Rather than resisting impermanence, POLI NIKA embraces it, crafting a love song that’s less about possession and more about presence.
It’s not just the lyrics that feel elevated—it’s the entire sonic experience. There’s a cohesion in the arrangement that reflects a thoughtful evolution in her artistry. The textures are lush but never overwhelming. There’s room to breathe. There’s room to reflect. And maybe that’s the point. Nothing Belongs to Us is a song that asks you to slow down, to sit with your thoughts, to notice the flickers of beauty in everyday connection.
For those who gravitate toward music that feels like it’s whispering truths into your ear, POLI NIKA is a must-listen. She’s not chasing trends or algorithms—she’s building a body of work that speaks directly to the heart. Nothing Belongs to Us is the kind of song you’ll come back to when the world feels heavy, when you’re searching for meaning in the mundane, or when you simply want to remember what it feels like to be seen.
As POLI NIKA continues to carve out her space in the indie-pop realm, her music becomes more than a soundtrack—it becomes a companion. And with Nothing Belongs to Us, she reminds us that even in a world that promises nothing, love can still feel like everything.
