JustHMLover 1,635 Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Diplo has promised a series of country-themed releases under his given name, Thomas Wesley, in 2019. The first of these, “So Long,” features country singer-songwriter Cam, who has previously shown her mastery of heartbroken balladry (“Burning House”) and the answer song (“Diane”), along with straight-ahead pop (“Palace,” which Sam Smith recorded for The Thrill of It All). Built on Diplo’s pulsing string rhythms, syncopated piano and a four-on-the-floor beat, the new track makes way for Cam’s bell-clear vocals and her entreaty to a longtime loner. “Ain’t your momma ever told you/Just because you’re out here running doesn’t make you free,” she sings, asking the other person to let the heart rule for a change. “So Long” skips the big build-and-release approach favored by many dance-pop hits of late, employing instead a few well-placed sections where the beat drops out entirely and — in perhaps a nod to classic country — returns with a few lively fiddle somersaults following each chorus. It’s a reminder that country and dance music aren’t natural enemies, as long as they’re being fused together by the right hands. - Rolling Stone https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zScLQPhj_0Q Spoiler serving dad looks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
