The situation
Heart Of Woman's debut album has been out for a while, and one of its tracks, Close To Me, is a slow burn song designed to showcase the group's vocals. The song has a repetitive phrasing in its verses and a more effusive chorus, but it doesn't quite live up to its potential. The album itself has been promoted with multiple video clips, including a performance video for the b-side Told U So.
What the internet did with it
- — "This one's pretty mid" reflects the general sentiment that Close To Me is an unremarkable but not bad song, with one commenter giving it a rating of 7.
- A commenter noted that 'Told You So' is their favorite song on the album, and that the full album is still enjoyable despite not having many standout tracks.
- The performance video for 'Told U So' has been well-received, with the author of the review also praising it as a "very nice" video.
The open question
The question remains whether Heart Of Woman can build on the modest success of their debut album and create more compelling music in the future, particularly in terms of showcasing their vocals in a more dynamic way.
