“Carousel” is the second song on Melanie Martinez’s Dollhouse EP and it’s a delicious electro-pop treat with fantastic lyrics that make good use of the song’s setting, an amusement park.

“Tears fall / And I know / This pain is just a part of life,” sings Jacquie Lee, who’s thus far most known for being a contestant on The Voice, on her emotive new single, “Tears Fall.” It’s a catchy little number with a relatively organic sound, especially for something aimed at today’s pop radio.…

We’re still amazed by the fact that these guys make all of this massive-sounding music using only bass guitar and drums. It’s insane, really, but it sounds superb.
