We have all played the fool in love, but some of us have been typecast in this role.”
This message is conveyed is supported by dulcet melodies and addictive hooks. The instrumentation might sound a bit weird to some listeners, but it is something to listen to as its funkiness makes it the best! Just be sure to listen to those catchy hooks in the chorus!
“The lyrics are written with a nod to anyone thinking that their town is the very best and the biggest in the world and thinking about all the rivalry between cities anywhere” — Skylear
“Big Love” by Skyelar features a dynamic of sounds. When it starts off, the song is supported by mellow melodies played by a broad electronic guitar, synthesizers, and a drum set. But by the chorus, the dam of emotions is broken as the energy level is elevated: louder vocals, denser synthesized riffs, and soaring guitar licks. What doesn’t change is the vocals, singing with melodious yet hazy tones. It is such a break-taking listen as each part of the song expresses its own way in a big and dramatic approach. You have to listen “Big Love” to know what I am talking about!

With endearing lyrics, “hey dear, heidi” by Australian artist Michelle Limanjae is a splendid listen to this Friday. But, that isn’t the only thing that makes this song so delightful! The song also features a pretty solid pop-rock vibe with enjoyable guitars riffs. Hazy, mellow vocals are laid over the instrumentation, but fit in with the laid-back mood so well. Michelle Limanjae’s newest single is an easy-going pop-rock tune that has so many pleasurable moments!
Hatim’s newest single takes inspiration from the people from all walks of life that the artist saw in Toronto. “It’s often human struggle that inspires me most – rich or poor, we all struggle with something.” These emotions play a big part in the creation of “Feels” as Hatim experimented with two genres to figure out these emotions and struggles.
