HEAR: Wolffe – “Shoot You Down”
Wolffe
“Shoot You Down”
What a beautiful song, what a beautiful voice. Wolffe is stepping into the ground that del Rey and Lorde paved, but with a difference. There is a bluesiness to Wolffe’s voice that is sometimes missing in del Rey and Lorde. Del Rey is so “I’m tired” worldly and Lorde is so young, it nice to hear a more mature voice try the material, and Wolffe pulls it off. (Oh, by the by, if you think I don’t love del Rey and Lorde, you are wrong; I am one the main worshippers of each one). It just that in this song, Wolffe hits that maturity and intensity that this song needs. I really love her, and I think that she has a long future. SYFFAL magazine says:
“like Amy Winehouse got ahold (sic) of a Lorde track and went to TOWN… it’s so perfect.”
That about sums it up.
