Phildel– Monument To Life

Ahead of her upcoming September UK tour, acclaimed artist Phildel unveils her stirring new single ‘Monument to Life’, out 29th August.

Earlier this year, the genre-defying Phildel released her single ‘Wild As Sin’ and announced a headline UK tour for September 2025. With her live dates almost upon us, another single is on its way: ‘Monument to Life’ will be out on 29th August. It’s another dazzling display of the musician’s expert songwriting skills, transforming a piano-led heartbreak ballad into something epic and emotional yet refined and understated.

Phildel: ‘This is about the isolating feeling of loving someone who isn’t capable of loving you back, despite the loyalty and love that you show them, leaving you questioning if you’ve ever known love at all. And then finally pulling yourself away and realising … it’s not unlike the feeling of losing a button down a crack. That relationship held so little love for you, and over time it becomes clearer that the true loss is actually quite small.

I really enjoyed arranging the rippling strings and composing the piano part for this song – there is something very natural in the way it all came together. Something about the pace of it means that when I sing and play it, I feel such a deep sense of freedom… perhaps that’s the freedom of being liberated from an unbalanced relationship.’
