“Wide Awake”, the new single from American singer-songwriter Lost Blonde, is an introspective pop ballad that’s easy to get lost in, especially once Lost Blonde takes control with her compelling vocal performance.

The song positions itself in the contemporary box, most likely between a Taylor Swift and Katy Perry record, and we feel it draws inspiration from both of these musicians. Furthermore, her vocal quality takes command of the track, similar to what you would expect from an artist further up the ladder, and she proves to be a heavyweight in her field!

‘Wide Awake’ starts on a solid foot, with a piano intro that arrives with a bold tone. The melody and energy build up gradually, eventually climaxing with a massive stereo-filled sound where Lost Blonde truly cements the message of the song. She speaks candidly about becoming obsessed with love and the feelings that often emerge after meeting a new flame for the first time.

The beat takes a step back towards the end of the song, allowing Lost Blonde to leave her mark vocally; she does just that! Then we’re right back into the track’s weight, with the chorus hitting us one last time!

Overall, an exciting new pop track from this one Lost Blonde. It is difficult to fault her passion and her confidence is likely to take her far! You can stream here.
