EP REVIEW - TAYLOR-RAE - HEAVEN RIGHT NOW

-
Today (Friday 18th July), Canadian singer-songwriter, Taylor-Rae has released her latest EP, Heaven Right Now which is made up of 4 tracks.

Heaven Right Now begins with a guitar instrumental mixed with Taylor-Rae's emotional tones and songwriting filled with honesty that is clearly written from the heart. The emotional lyrics got me thinking about my Grandma who sadly passed away a few years back and with her anniversary over the weekend, I am so pleased that it got me thinking about my memories with her. The chorus for me is the most stunning part of the song, however, as Heave Right Now continues Taylor-Rae reminds you that it is OK to cry on those emotional days. The second verse demonstrates a lot of vulnerable and one that makes you appreciate your life. Heaven Right Now is my new favourite song.

Bittersweet takes Taylor -Rae's EP to another level as part of her wonderful journey. The chorus is super catchy and one that sees the happier side of who Taylor-Rae is as an artist which is great to hear. The journey that Bittersweet takes us on as a listener sees another brilliant side to her songwriting mixed with her use of tones both soft and crisp. Once again, the chorus is the powerful part of the song.


Drunk Plans demonstrates Taylor-Rae's wonderful softer tones and heartfelt lyrics that got me a little emotional with some powerful songwriting. The chorus is stunning and sounds like it was written from the heart with a lot of past experiences involving vulnerability. There is something so cleverly done with Drunk Plans that is a wonderfully brilliant move. However, it was the wonderful instrumental in the middle of the song that had an interesting empowerment to it that I didn't expect leading to brilliantly delivered bridge/ final verse.

Sendin' Myself to Church has a very special feel from the start with some of her believes at the forefront. Sendin' Myself to Church is a very Taylor-Rae, whilst remaining true to herself and written within her music wonderfully. One thing I enjoyed is the beautiful layered vocals is great. The verses are very clever and follows fantastically showing another side of who she is as an artist. Sendin' Myself to Church is a beautiful song to end this rather special EP with.

I wasn't sure that I was even going to write this blog let alone share it, but how could I not when it was a big episode for Aaron Dingle and Robert Sugden known as Robron to their loyal fans. From the very moment Kev Townsend was revealed as Robert Sugden's husband there has been trouble, however tonight's episode (Thursday 27th November) was brilliant viewing as Kev set out for revenge, but sneaking into Aaron Dingle's flat was when the drama began having discovered Robert was there much to his shock. Photo Credit: ITV/ Emmerdale You have to love the fact that Aaron is determined to tell Kev about them saying “If nothing's gonna happen with the police or Kev, we need to just tell him we're back together!” displaying that they're ready to be out in the open regarding their relationship instead of sneaking around worrying about Kev. The reassurance that Robert and Aaron gave to one another throughout the episode was great showing a lot of character developme...

With C2C 2025 only a month away, I thought I would share with you the artists I am very excited to see on the pop up stages following yesterday's announcement (4th February). Everyone who knows me knows how much I love the pop up stages as it allows you to discover so many incredible artists for the very first time as well as see some of your favourite artists. Back in December when I first saw  Abbie Mac  supporting Sophia Scott who played her debut London show, and honestly Abbie Mac is an artist to watch as she has a bright future ahead of her. I remember tearing up at some of her songs which I have had certain lyrics going through my head ever since, so I'm excited to complete them. Abby Anderson  is an artist who through the Covid era's music helped me through so much as she is an artist who writes from the heart and her songs definitely take you on a journey. I know for a fact many of my friends are excited about the fact Abby Anderson has even been announced. Alli ...
