"Baby, It's October" by The Little Miss is about ghosts in our heads. See the Official Video and hear an Interview with The Little Miss herself

AP Track Review

The Little Miss has a lot on her mind. In the season appropriate, Official Video for the relationship drenched, Baby, It's October there are ghosts not quite afloat but as real and tangible as the dreams that we all have in our heads. The Little Miss is the musical moniker of L.A based Hayley Johnson whose blend of alt folk has hybrid tones like something from 50's folk / country and western meets the American Songbook. On all her music It is sometimes hard to figure out if she is yearning for those white picket fences or sardonically singing about the inherent demons that lie behind them or both. On Baby, It's October her sound with deep vocal tones and sometimes even a hint of a faint yodel has a sort of hyper realistic vibe when framed with Hayley's body of work both musically and visually. She, in fact, would of fit in fine in the David Lynch-esque season of "Goliath" that saw Lynda Kay doing a similar country and western (on high) performance. So, cowpokes and cowgirls, enjoy the video for Baby, It's October by The Little Miss as well as the extensive interview I had the pleasure of conducting with her. Heehaw.

"This particular song is about the rise and decline of one of my more tumultuous romantic relationships. The visual metaphor is pretty on the nose: sometimes, without knowing it, we become ghosts of ourselves, as we deceive ourselves to stay in relationships that don't reflect what we truly want or who we are. The metaphor, of course, can apply to anything: our jobs, our friendships, our personal narratives - anything that we compromise a great deal of ourselves for in order to stay."
