Daniel Merriweather Feat Adele – Water And A Flame
Filed under: Single Reviews by KirkNo Comments »
After conjuring up one of the best pop-ballads of the year in “Red” Daniel Merryweater returns to take another stab at our heart strings, but this time enlists the help of Adele. Not a bad choice as Adele is considered one of Britain best vocalists, and with Daniel praised for his own vocal abilities it sounds like a perfect match for a long lost love song. What you get unfortunately is horribly average, and is only saved by the vocals. Adele adds some much needed soul to the song. Musically there ins’t much going on. In the background, instruments sound generic and add nothing to the track. It is basically a song that shows you how well both artists can sing and it serves its purpose, but it’s not enough to make it stand out.
If you’re the kind of person who looks for something more than a well sung song then you won’t get much enjoyment from this track. If however you’re the kind of person who is only concerned about vocals, my advice? Get an acappala only version of this track, and make up your own background music, you’re likely to do a better job!
