This is a great combination of jazz and acoustic soul. I’m all chilled out from listening to it and it’s setting my Sunday afternoon off perfectly. This is an acoustic led track with percussion, and I could be wrong but sounds like an acoustic bass plus keyboards. The harmonies are solid, nicely layered. What caught my attention was the chord progression, it made me smile. I love those kind of runs and the vocals sit comfortably on top. Let’s talk arrangements – the whispered count off tells you what kind of track it is, slow and gentle we go.
What I like about the lyrics is the honesty:
“Never been the one that got picked when they put the boys to pavement” (Is that a reference to picking teams for football? I can relate – I have two left feet.)
The other thing is the honesty about feelings and this is old school writing in that way you can’t dress it up. All in all a gorgeous song.
