#songoftheday / REVIEW: LP: “NIGHT LIKE THIS”

“In the end, I wasn’t innocent, but we could still pretend,” sings LP, an insanely talented new pop rock-ish singer/songwriter who’s bound to skyrocket to fame this year.   The song in question is “Night Like This” and it’s got happiness-inducing boom clap beats and a swirly, feel good melody.  Best of all, it has LP’s gorgeous voice, which calls to mind Stevie Nicks and Dolly Parton yet sounds nothing like them.  Suffice to say she’s an original and her music is informed by some of music’s best.  To that end, “Night Like This” ranks high on our (still to be written) list of the best songs of 2014.
