After pouring her heart out on 2020’s concept album, Confessional, Janet Devlin released It’s Not That Deep in December of 2021, describing the EP as a “welcome break” to the deepness she previously explored. “I was explaining my ideas and I just kept saying “it’s not that deep” so naturally that became the name, and quite honestly the phrase has made its way into my daily life now!”
It’s Not That Deep exists as a reflection of Janet’s career thus far, including a nostalgic rendition of her X-Factor debut with “Your Song”. In the updated cover of Elton John’s classic, Janet’s distinctive voice is as moving as it was a decade ago, demonstrating her skill in renewing songs through her own unique style.

It’s a little bit funny
This feeling inside
I’m not one of those who can easily hide
I don’t have much money, but boy if I did
I’d buy a big house where we both could live
So excuse me forgetting
But these things I do
See I’ve forgotten, if they’re green or they’re blue
Anyway the thing is, what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I’ve ever seen
And you can tell everybody
This is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it’s done
I hope you don’t mind
I hope you don’t mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is now you’re in the world
If I was a sculptor
But then again, no
Or a girl who makes potions in a traveling show
I know it’s not much but it’s the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one’s for you
And you can tell everybody
This is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it’s done
I hope you don’t mind
I hope you don’t mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is now you’re in the world
