The title of this song is what got my attention.

This song comes forth with a swag from the outset, the bassline, drums, guitar and keyboards, bring a real soulful texture to this….. Then Kate comes in low key and understated until she hits the chorus at 0:47 raising the volume and the temperature! She brings a soulful playfulness to this track that makes me …
