EP REVIEW - SYKAMORE - THROUGH THE STATIC

-
Today (Friday 29th March) will see Canadian country singer-songwriter, Sykamore release her brand new EP called Through The Static which is made up of 4 songs.

Emotional begins with Sykamore's soft vocal at the forefront of the song showcasing her brilliant story telling with her mix of vocal tones. The chorus is filled with many heartfelt lyrics that I caught myself listening rather closely too as you can hear this fairytale of love happening and its really wonderful to hear as you can hear two different sides. I love the upbeat lyrics within the final verse as well as the uptempo of the final chorus as it allows for the listeners to hear another side of who Sykamore is within this new EP.

Highway Towns begins with a soft instrumental complimenting Sykamore's crisp vocal tone allowing for the storytelling to come through straight away with a wonderful emotional feel that I caught myself listening to rather closely especially as the chorus kicked in. The chorus is great and you can really hear Sykamore's personal connection making it rather special. The further two verses move the song on in a wonderful way that I have a feeling many people will really enjoy listening too.

More Where That Came From starts with a upbeat instrumental breaking the EP up wonderfully allowing for listeners to see a different side of who she is as an artist. The first verse sees Sykamore's once again her crisp tone at the forefront giving the opportunity for her to showcase her vulnerable side as the lyrics seem personal. The chorus features many heartfelt lyrics about that one person, you thought would be there for you and you sadly realise that they aren't and it's sad, however, you find a way to be happy again. The second verse brilliantly connects to the songs message and I loved it! You have to love the upbeat chorus to end More Where That Came From.

Perfect Storm begins with Sykamore's soft tone complimenting the lyrics in a great as the songwriting is given it's opportunity to shine. The lyrics allow you to paint your own picture of what has happened/ is happening throughout a certain relationship. The emotional connection from Sykamore within is beautifully delivered. The chorus features many heartfelt lyrics that give Sykamore the opportunity to show her vulnerable side to her fans. The softer crisp tone in the second verse was beautifully timed.
Thank you, Sykamore for writing a brilliant song.

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
