“I felt every word.
I believed every word.
Sweet mournful vocals accompany this well-written song of longing. The piano and strings are the perfect accompaniment to this voice.
Fleeting describes much of life and Peridot has captured it oh so well with this release.”
“This light and airy melody makes it hard to sit still, and combined with a fun set of lyrics this single will have you signing along .
Where Is Kobi?
We can all hope back in the studio recording another fun Pop hit for the world to hear.”
“A description like ... ‘Soft vocals with an edge,’ sounds like an oxymoron, but Liv Dawson pulls off exactly that with Pushing 21. A decidedly commercial offering, this single infuses enough emotion and commonality to engage listeners.”
“Dive in because the water is thumping in this ‘Sharktank.’ Lyrics razor sharp and a ragged delivery that brings out the emotion. A track with some real splash.”
“An easy pop track destined to be a summer hit as it is easy to smile and groove too.
And Hey, who doesn’t want to feel ‘Awesome’?”
“This one truly does get soaked up in your brain. Smooth alluring vocals and a nice easy groove carry a set of vocals that say more than you would assume at first listen. ”
“The intro is dark, but real, and the lyrics launch off from from this with something to say. Far too many tracks fall into the trap of a convenient rhyme rather than writing with a clear message. ‘My Last Words’ is powerful and raw and delivers a truth that is far too uncommon in most songwriting.”
Rating: 5 out of 5
“Songs carry a power to entertain, educate and enlighten and this song carries that three-pronged torch well.
The production and delivery are solid here, but this track is about the message and emotion.
Reminiscent of Kendrick Lamar this is music with something to say. And say it well as cartel leader El Chapo is not glorified here, but rather used as a metaphor of political protest.”
“Get up on your feet and groove along to IOU. From the bouncy piano to the jovial melody and uplifting lyrics this is a feel good ditty about appreciating the good people in your life.”
“Vocals dripping with emotion that conjure up thoughts of old school Emmylou. The lyrics are brought out not only in the stellar delivery, that feels true and authentic, but also by the perfectly balance melody. Smooth and soft and haunting all at the same time.”
“‘Not Given Up’ rolls out to your ears feeling like three songs in one, and the entire trio is engaging and entertaining. The vocals pulled me in and held me tight through all three delivery styles and musically this track gets out of the way so that the emotions and lyrics carry the way.”
“I dig the retro 80’s vibe to this one. An instant toe-tapper, Spin Around will get you moving and when this one comes on the radio, you will have no choice but to turn up the dial and groove along! ”
“This track delivers with a infectious beat, back dropped by a haunting air raid siren that could have overshadowed all else with the wrong production, but as is the balance of the music and words and that siren only serves to punctuate a set of lyrics that speak loud and clear. The delivery is engaging and raw and the emotional bounce held me in the groove. ”
“Raw and powerful, this track brings gritty emotion in a hard definitive delivery. ”
“The words, You Gotta Love Yourself are repeated in this “Daily Affirmation” and that is for damn sure a message we all need at times, but what I love about this track is the surprising boldness of the music in conjunction with touching, yet wryly humorous lyrics.”
“Get’Em is a track that grabs you instantly, and when I say grab, I do not mean in a gentle embrace, but with a fistful of your shirt. As hip-hop should be, this one catches your attention and holds it as you listen to a delivery that both antagonizes and delights. ”
“The groove is evident from the first beat. The smooth vocals lured me in like a siren of the sea and held me throughout the trip this track took me down. ”
“I imagine this as the post break-up anthem of pissed off women the world over. The funny thing is as a man I couldn’t help but listen to this track over and over and with each listen I found myself grinning and digging the groove as well as the sultry vocals. The lyrics surprised me at times and I loved the no punches pulled vibe of this one. ”
“The best of music enlightens and heightens who we are by tapping into shared emotions. Ella does all of those things while allowing us a heartfelt walk in the shoes of another. This is music that speaks to the soul delivered in a powerfully gruff voice that gives you all the feels. And the video brings the lyrics into a gripping reality. The simply haunting guitar melody adds to the mix to give this song a haunting quality that sticks to your heart for a long time afterward. ”
“The vocals are alluring and intoxicating and the beat engaging. Full Stop is a track I did now want to stop.”
