Every so often, I find a song that, as daft as it may sound- breaks my heart. I think I’ve found a song that will make me bawl even if I’m in a good mood.
La Roux’s debut album is one of the best albums of this year, there’s a track on it that I am currently listening to (on repeat) and I honestly feel the need to go to my room and cry like a baby. But I won’t. Instead I will keep playing it over and over. Being in awe of how beautiful and painful Elly Jackson’s voice is. The London Gospel Choir feature on it, which just make it so emotional. The words rip right through me…and lead me onto thinking about someone. However, this blog is not for such personal information!
I’ve read that this song is too emotional for Elly to sing live. I’m pretty sure if I heard Cover My Eyes live, I’d be a total mess. Still, it’d be amazing to see La Roux and The London Gospel Choir do this live together.
I’m pretty sure all of us have felt like at this at some point in our lives. Or have yet to feel it, or are currently feeling it. It’s a bastard of a feeling. So, I apologise if the song makes you cry. Hopefully you’ll hear just how beautiful the song is. Listening to it through headphones is better, for some reason you can hear The London Gospel Choir more clear…or maybe my hearing is getting worse!
I must mention, that musically it reminds me of Wonderful Life by Black..I love that song.
