There are times, when you come across a song and you just can't get enough of it! This one comes in an unexpected form. 2010s X factor winner Matt Cardle, who controversially "parted ways" from his big record label but soon signed up with So What Recordings, leads this song with a touch of spice, in the form of Mel C. Both artists quite well known but for many they may have not heard from them in a while. However, Matt and Mel have both been releasing music over the past few years separately with albums and singles being released. The music had poor publicity and many people are unaware of there new material. This one however, has caught my ear and is something I just cant seem to get out of my head.
Take a listen, and take note that funnily enough Matt sings higher than Mel throughout most of the song. The Love song "Loving You" has good lyrics and a good tune throughout, makes a change from the poor lyrics of other songs around today.
The song is out August 18th.
Too please fans, lyric videos have been produced in both English and Spanish. Like the Spanish version better?
Mel C has has had her own private label, Red Girl, since 2004 and has had some solo hits on it. But it is always a trade off to leave the big corporations. You keep a much bigger chunk of what you earn, but you lack the cash to really compete in the race to get good air play and push a song, so Matt's focus tracks from The Fire, got very little radio play. It appears that Matt left So What after that album and the new single and Album are being released on the Matt Cardle label. A risky move, but then Matt has no fear of risks. He has hired a very good marketing company directly, cutting out the record labels entirely. So far, they have done a bang up job because he has gotten much more press coverage than he ever got with Sony or So What.
