| Discovering Ersha Island's "Just Like the Other Kids": A Journey of Relatability |
Ersha Island, a duo of siblings hailing from Auckland, New Zealand, has recently caught my attention with their latest Pop/R&B single, “Like The Other Kids.” Joined by local talents Iris Zhang and Geoff Ong, they’ve crafted a song that delves into the familiar territory of not quite fitting in—a theme many of us can relate to.
The track, part of their debut EP ‘Back To Our Roots,’ speaks volumes about the struggles of finding one’s place, especially during those awkward childhood years. With heartfelt vocals and soulful guitar riffs by Sam Nakamura, Ersha Island captures the essence of those emotions that often accompany the journey of self-discovery.

What’s striking about “Like The Other Kids” is its ability to tackle such a weighty topic with a light touch. Despite the heaviness of its theme, the song maintains an uplifting vibe, reminiscent of carefree days spent on playgrounds—a sentiment echoed in its accompanying music video.
The video, set against the backdrop of a playground, reflects the innocence and camaraderie of childhood, all while hinting at the deeper struggles of fitting in. It’s a visual representation of the song’s message—a reminder that many of us have felt like outsiders at some point in our lives.
Featuring the soulful vocals of Iris Zhang and Geoff Ong, the song weaves together elements of R&B and Pop, creating a sound that feels both nostalgic and refreshing. The production, overseen by EDY and Edward Liu, strikes a balance between polished and raw, allowing the song’s authenticity to shine through.
