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.

Since Isabelle Smith  arrived on our screens back in January, Hollyoaks viewers have seen a hard-hitting storyline for her character, Frankie Osborne who since  February has had tough relationships with Osborne family especially Nancy and Jack, and looking back now you can see the cries for help with her moods, attitude, and vulnerability that have changed across the past 6 months. Frankie's used dance as her escape seeing her audition for dance school. With Darren having been the one wanting to protect Frankie with everything that has arose. One of my favourite moments was Frankie learning sign language so she could communicate with Oscar allowing people to see the caring side to the character. The first appearance of Frankie Osborne came in Wednesday's episode (4th September) where her dance place got deferred leaving her devastated as Darren continued to support Frankie seeing her become emotional about her return to school it was clear how much Darren has Frankie's best

With Hollyoaks entering the first week of their brand-new 3 episodes a week next week in typical Hollyoaks style a stunt is involved. Who doesn't love a Hollyoaks stunt? Next week will see Grandfather and Granddaughter, Jack and Frankie Osborne run into Suzanne Ashworth and JJ Osborne outside The Dog patio. With the support of Sally St Claire and Jack, Frankie confront Suzanne about her not believing her as she goes into detail about what she experienced.  This can't be an easy conversation to have, but thankful she has people she trusts around her.  Jack later adds the pressure and challenges Suzanne about what she knew.  I have a feeling that these scenes could lead to some emotional moments. Photo Credit: Lime Pictures/ Hollyoaks Inside The McQueen house are Marie Fielding, Jack, Suzanne and Frankie. Later, Leela Lomax breaks the news of the accident in The Dog to The Osbornes and Tony Hutchinson as Darren Osbornes races to his daughter, Frankie and father, Jack. Question re
