The Inspiration Behind the Song
Shields shares the inspiration behind Freak Like Me, noting her experiences at The Priory bar in Glasgow. “That place was sweaty, loud, and full of young musicians and misfits just being unapologetically themselves,” she recalls. “There was this unspoken understanding that no one had to pretend.” This vibrant atmosphere served as a backdrop for her creative process, aiming to capture the essence of a community where being a ‘freak’ is not only accepted but celebrated.
