I’m
sure you’ll agree that as an up and coming artist George Ezra is definitely set
to be another favourite. He could run rings around the charts with his voice,
unique as the likes of artists such as Sam Smith and John Newman, both of whom
have consistently made the top 10 and obviously favourites in the public’s eye.
Following on from the success of debut single, Budapest, George brings forward
the insatiably catchy song, Blame It on Me. This tuneful track is beautifully
euphonious; the combination of acoustic guitar, rubbing mixture of synth
sounds, soft drum beats and naturally lyrical sounds like the clapping of
hands, and the clicking of fingers come together to form a modern twist on folk
music. Admirably, to be able to make a mainstream song from this stylised
‘genre’ is commendable. Despite what we love about this, the start as you may
criticise, sounds like a retro TV show opening. Cheesy as that may sound, the
moment George’s strong, and yet irresistibly rustic voice pushes its way
through, that thought is instantly obliterated. In truth, everyone has their
own thoughts on music which may cause you to pass this song off, however I’d
say that even if acoustic/pop music isn’t your thing, this is definitely worth
a listen to.
