Natalie Shay – Perfume
Natalie Shay - Perfume
Release Date: Out Now
So, the 80s are back in style and
I’m starting to make my peace with that (apart from the fashion, nobody needs
to see that again) which makes this latest release by Natalie Shay all the more
palatable. ‘Perfume’ blends the modern edge of artists like LadyHawke with the
80s carefree polish of Tiffany or Belinda Carlisle. “I will let you down but
I’ll let you down slowly” sings Shay on the kind of chorus that in 2018 could
be heard in festival field sung by hundreds of millennials while in the 80s it
would waft reassuringly from a tinny cassette stereo in a suburban teen
bedroom. The melodies are slick and hooky while the vocals tread that fine line
between childish innocence and a maturity that comes from experience. The only
things missing are processed hand claps and a saxophone solo. And maybe a
little more hairspray.
