Play Me On Repeat

Posted on March 14, 2026March 14, 2026 by Mathilde

The love loop I didn’t want to escape, just play me on repeat... Some feelings don’t move in a straight line. They circle. They return. They find you again in a different light, on a different night, with the same quiet certainty—like your body already knows the ending… and still presses...

Raise the Red Sail: a Country heart with Viking thunder

Posted on February 1, 2026February 1, 2026 by Mathilde

Some songs arrive like weather. Not planned.Not polite.Just… there. A wind in the room.Salt on the tongue.A drum under the ribs. That’s how “Raise the Red Sail” came to me. I wrote it like you write a spell.With both hands.With a pulse. It’s a Country / Viking fusion anthem, and I know...

A Letter to the Girl Who Didn’t Know Her Worth

Posted on December 26, 2025December 28, 2025 by Mathilde

Dear girl I used to be, Tomorrow, a song will come out with my name on it.A duet called Princess.A song I never thought I’d be brave enough to write. It’s not for the version of me now — not really.It’s for you. The one who stayed too long.Who begged to be seen.Who accepted crumbs and...

Princess Without a Castle: The Story Behind the Duet

Posted on December 19, 2025December 28, 2025 by Mathilde

There was a time when I would’ve done anything to be loved.Shrink myself. Stay quiet. Swallow my intuition.Smile when it hurt. Stay when it broke me. That’s who Princess is about — and who she refuses to be anymore. “Princess” is my upcoming duet with Kael Daemon — and it might be the...

The Songs I Write When I Can’t Speak

Posted on December 5, 2025December 28, 2025 by Mathilde

There are days when I open my mouth — and nothing comes out.Not because I have nothing to say…But because what I need to say is too heavy for words. That’s when I write. Not novels. Not poems. Not blog posts.Songs. Songs are the language my nervous system understands.They bypass the fear....

How ‘Midnight on Christmas Eve’ Became An Heiligabend, La Veille de Noël and Du kommer juleaften

Posted on November 30, 2025December 28, 2025 by Mathilde

One story, four languages, and two songwriters who realised their mother tongues could hold the same heartbreak. There’s a special kind of silence on Christmas Eve. Not the soft, movie kind with snow and fairy lights, but the silence that wraps around you when you realise you’re going back to...

Creating a Faceless Artist: Why I Chose to Stay Hidden

Posted on November 28, 2025December 28, 2025 by Mathilde

I used to think being seen was the price of being heard.That if I wanted to share my songs, I had to also share my face, my name, my past.But I don’t believe that anymore. Creating the artist known as Mathilde Toft — faceless, poetic, emotionally true — was one of the most protective,...

How Christmas Songs Became My Winter Therapy

Posted on November 21, 2025December 28, 2025 by Mathilde

I never thought I’d write Christmas songs. For a long time, December just meant pressure, absence, and pretending to smile in rooms full of noise. But last winter, something shifted. I stopped writing songs for Christmas, and started writing songs during Christmas — the ones that reflected...

Christmas Lights & Complicated Hearts

Posted on November 7, 2025December 28, 2025 by Mathilde

Three new holiday singles are coming November 14. A story of complicated hearts, midnight doorsteps, and choosing warmth again — set in the glow of the Christmas lights in Aarhus. This November, I’m releasing a project that feels like both a confession and a celebration. For the longest time,...

Compliment Her, Crust Me – New Song Release

Posted on November 5, 2025December 28, 2025 by Mathilde

Today, I’m releasing a song that came straight from the ache of comparison. Compliment Her, Crush Me is the kind that eats at your confidence, your body, your love, your worth. We don’t always talk about it, but comparison is its own kind of violence.The little cuts add up: when someone hypes...
