SINGLE REVIEW - JESS THRISTAN - JOLENE ft Kezia Gill, Jade Helliwell, and Demi Marriner

-
This Friday (2nd February) will see Yorkshire based singer-songwriter, Jess Thristan release her brand new single of a classic Dolly Parton song, Jolene.
Jess is releasing this song with fellow singer-songwriters Kezia Gill, Jade Helliwell, and Demi Marriner on the track.


Jolene begins with a crisp vocal tone opening allowing for beautiful tones to be shown - there is something so beautifully raw about this version already as Jess has stripped it back allowing for another side of the lyrics to shine through. Jess Thristan, Jade Helliwell, Kezia Gill and Demi Marriner's harmonies are great as they blend wonderfully with their soulful tones, however, the solo vocals on their own solo lines are great giving the listeners a chance to hear them individually as artists which many listeners will appreciate being a fan of these ladies.
The chorus has been carefully thought about when it comes to Jess, Jade, Kezia and Demi's vocal tones and harmonies making for a great moment alone.

Jolene is one of favourite Dolly Parton's songs, however, this version is most definitely my favourite cover due to it being completely different to anything I have experienced with a cover of this song.

SINGLE REVIEW - ELERI - KARAOKE

-
This Friday (11th August)  will see  Swansea based artist singer-songwriter, Eleri  release her latest single, Karaoke. Karaoke was co written with Vanessa Murray and Katie Buckland, and produced by Tim Prottey/Jones of First Time Flyers. Karaoke  has an upbeat instrumental setting the tone beautifully. The first verses sees Eleri's soft vocal at the forefront with lyrics that get you thinking of those moments at a gig that you don't think you'll ever get to see takes me back to experiencing Priscilla Block with Eleri last year, oh the memories. The second verse sees the song take another turn of when you feel like things aren't working out but you are determined to learn from the lesson it's given you. The chorus features many catchy upbeat lyrics that I could myself singing along with despite not knowing the lyrics 100% typical Kellie. There is so much passion within the lyrics and the more you hear the lyrics the more appreciation I gain. Love the summer of '

-
With Amelia Spencer about to christen her daughter, Esther it wouldn't be a soap without drama during the ceremony would it? It’s the day of Amelia Spencer’s daughter, Esther’s christening who is touched by her boyfriend, Noah Dingle’s support who has been there for her during her pregnancy and now adjusting to her journey into motherhood. It’s lovely to see how much he genuinely cares and wants the best for them both. Following Lydia Dingles help in organising the christening, she is disappointed when Samson Dingle refuses to accompany her to his daughter’s christening. Chloe Harris and Amy Wyatt are confrontational around cousins Chas and Charity. However, when Amy and Chloe arrive at Esther’s christening following Chas’ invite, Charity is less than impressed. Things escalated as Charles Anderson’s begins the christening as Charity’s feud with Amy threatens to put the service in jeopardy - part of me is like yay for the drama, but the other is like why are you doing this ,Charit

EMMERDALE REVIEW - DAN SHOWED HIS VULNERABILITY

Over the past few weeks, Emmerdale viewers have seen a different side of Dan Spencer following his daughter, Amelia's social media ordeal which has allowed for a different side of the character's development to be shown. It's obvious to me and many other viewers that all Dan Spencer has ever wanted to do was protect Amelia, but the way he said some harsh things to her in Tuesday's episode (11th July) saw the vulnerability in both characters. It was during Wednesday's episode (12th July) where Dan said "you have every right to be online" was a moment I caught myself a little emotional over as it reminded me of my own experience once again - it's clear how much Dan cares about his daughter and just wants what's best for her like parents do. The way that parents want their children to hear the truth, sometimes isn't the best way to do but on the other side sometimes it just needs to be said. There was many times during this week that I felt for Am
