| Molly Warburton - The Way It Is |
Release Date: 25th November 2016
“That’s just the way it is; some
things will never change”. One of the most iconic lines of lyrics from down the
years of pop music made famous by the unassuming Bruce Hornsby. Now, ‘The Way
It Is’ has been reworked by the similarly unassuming but talented Lancastrian, Molly
Warburton. As soon as those famous soft key notes ring out and a smooth bass
gives things a bit of soul, you know where you are. Warburton’s voice chimes
with a little delay and it’s haunting in a very modern way as she uses old
words to warn a modern generation of the dangers of apathy and inaction. There
is a propensity these days for covering a song with minimal instrumentation and
it’s starting to get a little old but I think Molly Warburton’s treatment of
this 80s classic just gets through under the wire – partly down to timing and
the fact that this could soundtrack an anti-Trump montage for the American
liberals.
