Tim: So, it’s been over a week since we both had unabashed positivity for a track.
Tom: Blimey, is it that long? Are we in a rut, or is music in a rut?
Tim: I don’t know, but either way I’ve a feeling this track, from a Swedish producer and a Danish vocalist, might change that.
Tom: Surprise! It didn’t.
Tim: What? Why? I mean, MARC is clearly a subscriber to the don’t bore us, get to the chorus school of songwriting, which I’ll never begrudge anyone, particularly when the chorus is this energetic and enthusiastic.
Tom: Is it? Maybe I’m just tired, but I honestly felt myself drifting away even during the chorus here. We get it, Frederik. You can’t live without it. What was it again?
Tim: For me, it doesn’t matter – it’s just so enthusiastic, all through. I was going to have a moan about a lack of middle eight or closing chorus, but then I paid a bit more attention to it and I think this might be the first track I’ve seen with a three-part chorus, which then gets chopped around in its convenient 128bpm 15-second sections towards the end.
Tom: Huh. I think you’re right, but it’s a shame because a middle eight might be exactly what this needs to liven it up.
Tim: Hmmm…maybe it would, but I really don’t think it needs it. What we’ve got instead is a mixture of novelty and laziness which…oh, sod it, I’ll forgive it, because this is damn good to listen to.
