SINGLE REVIEW - KELSEA BALLERINI - I QUIT DRINKING

-
US singer-songwriter, Kelsea Ballerini has released her brand new single, I Quit Drinking which she also performed at the CMT Award Show last night.
I Quit Drinking is a duet with LANY's frontman, Paul Klein which was written by both Kelsea and Paul alongside Nicolle Gallyon. 

I Quit Drinking sees Kelsea's soft vocal opening up the song with a sweet piano instrumental allowing for the sentimental lyrics to come through.
The first verse sees Kelsea's songwriting shine through thanks to the lyrics having a warm and honest feel to them allowing for this emotive relationship based song come to life. The honesty within the song is displayed wonderfully which will have listeners feeling all kinds of emotions.
The chorus of I Quit Drinking features the message of being wrong for each other and knowing that you need to break up - but also not being willing to accept that the reason for the relationship is going in that direction, whilst also wanting to be so right for one another. Kelsea's warm vocals take the song to another level with her incredible vocal tone.
The second verse continues with Paul on lead vocals allowing for the song to have a different perspective when it comes to the day after the night before, and the layers within his crisp vocal is something that I rather enjoyed as I was listening - something I think over people listening will too. I like how this verse sees the relationship dynamic change within the song thanks to relationship changing and for the better. Kelsea and Paul's vocals work so incredibly well thanks to their beautiful tones blending wonderfully together as the second chorus comes in, showcasing why this song is perfect as a duet!
The final verse of I Quit Drinking sees Kelsea and Paul's harmonies demonstrated fantastically once again before they demonstrate their vocals softer independently as the final chorus comes in ending with a soft vocal from Kelsea and Paul.

As I Quit Drinking finishes my god, I am emotional - what a stunningly written song. The duet we never knew we needed.

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
