Aiida Turns Emotional Scars into Pop Gold with "Bad Tattoo”

Heartbreak rarely sounds this glamorous. Aiida, the Oslo-based queer pop artist with a voice as bold as her rhinestone-studded stage presence, bares her soul on her latest single, “Bad Tattoo.” It’s a glittery, emotional rollercoaster built around a brutally honest truth: it’s not always easy to cut ties, even when you know it’s for the best.

The track is a sonic blend of raw emotion and polished pop perfection, echoing the inner conflict many face—trying to act strong on the outside while still wearing old scars on the inside. Aiida herself puts it perfectly: “I always want to act all tough about cutting people off that aren’t good for me… friends, exes, family … but, really they get stuck in my head and my heart … like I keep wearing them on my sleeve. Like a bad tattoo.”

With shimmering synths, pulsing beats, and powerhouse vocals, the song is a cathartic release, perfect for singing along in your bedroom or blasting on a late-night drive. There’s something universal in its theme—how we carry people with us long after they’re gone, how love leaves marks that don’t fade easily.

Aiida isn’t just making pop music; she’s building emotional monuments out of melody, turning personal pain into collective healing. “Bad Tattoo” is a standout release that proves heartbreak doesn’t have to be quiet—it can be loud, proud, and full of glitter.
