Review-A-Thon: Heart Hypnotic by Delta Goodrem

 
 
Genres: Dance-Pop, Pop, Music
Released: 17 June 2013
℗ 2013 Sony Music Entertainment Australia Pty Ltd.

Delta Goodrem never fails to amaze me. Heart Hypnotic is a new pop song with lots of EDM elements. It's a fresh new dance song that's ready to hit the radios and clubs all over Australia and possible internationally. As a judge/coach on The Voice Australia, Delta Goodrem has released this new single at the perfect time. Fellow judge Ricky Martin also released a new song. My review of his song can be found here. But back to Heart Hypnotic, it is an amazing song with an amazing title.
Song:
I love how this song starts slow and then builds up. The piano at the beginning of the song creates a very peaceful atmosphere. Then it becomes a really upbeat dance song. Once the chorus comes around, the song has a really strong bass. The instrumentals are super fun as well. Closer to the end of the song, the tempo slows again. It really accentuates Delta Goodrem's amazing vocals.
Lyrics:
Heart Hypnotic was co-written by Ryan Tedder. He's worked with people like Zedd, Far East Movement and Gym Class Heroes which you can see is where some of Electronic Dance Pop has come from. I absolutely love the lyrics in this song. All the fancy symbolism really fits the mood of the song. My favourite lines:
"Dark nights under the setting sun,
Bright lights, come we're the only one."
Summary:
I'm so glad that after a decade, Delta Goodrem is still making music. Heart Hypnotic definitely beats Sitting on Top of the World and I'll listen to it for a long time. I hope you'll check it out. It only takes a few minutes.

Review-A-Thon: Come With Me by Ricky Martin

Genres: Pop, Music
Released: Jun 14, 2013
℗ 2013 Sony Music Entertainment US Latin LLC

Come With Me is an Australian release that will blasting through out country's radio stations. I'm pretty young so I haven't heard much of Ricky Martin but I do now that he's a very respected artist. He's been a judge on The Voice Australia which means that this was the perfect time to release a new single. Delta Goodrem, a fellow judge, also released a new single recently. I also plan to review her song but I'll see if I can squish it in. Come With Me is a mix of lot's of different genres. In my opinion, I'd say it's mostly dance-pop.
Song:
I really love songs like this. Songs that I can just imagine being played at a club. It's super catchy and fun. I've read a few things that other people have said and they've said it has Latin undertones. I completely agree and I think it adds a really nice element to the song. The kind of song it is is hard to describe. It's a variety of so many different genres. At first I think it reminds me of Enrique Iglesias and then I think it sounds like David Guetta but then it also sounds like Jennifer Lopez. Let's just say that it sounds mainstream but in a good way. I love the way it was produced. I can tell that if it was done any other way, it may not have sounded as good as it was. Of course Ricky Martin's voice does play a big part in how good it was but the producing plays a massive part too.
Lyrics:
The lyrics surprised me. I never thought that a dance-pop song could have such powerful lyrics. Sad lyrics, uplifting beat. My favourite line:
"Don't save your love for some elusive dream."
Summary:
Well obviously, I'm just going to say that I love it. I feel like this 'Summary' part of my reviews are getting too repetitive. I'll keep doing it though because people who don't want to read the whole review can read this. I love how it was produced and I love the strong and deep lyrics! Check it out guys!
