The chorus name checks Reba, Aretha, and Dolly, and you feel their influence in this because the vocals can be delicate as well as powerful and I love it! This track mixes country, with a slight sprinkle of gospel but the country vibe is there. There is some great guitar work on this too, which counters Brittney\u2019s voice! I want to quote from the lyrics here:<br \/><br \/>\u201cMakes you feel wanna be fancy like Reba,<br \/>A queen like Aretha,<br \/>In love like Johnny and June (A reference to Johnny Cash!) <br \/>Get mad like Alanis (love this)<br \/>Scream like Janet, <br \/>Do it all like Dolly would do\u2026\u201d <br \/><br \/>What a track! <br \/><br \/>This is a track from Brittney\u2019s forthcoming album due out on 9th January &#8211; \u201cMy Stupid Life\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>According to her Spotify bio:\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As a Baltimore native, Brittney Spencer is known for her free spirit and standout ability to mold life, truth, and wild imagination into songs.
