You're The One Ep $6.99 (AUD) A bold claim, but if there's anyone whose fingers are best placed to hit CTRL-ALT-DEL on pop, it's Charli XCX. Believe all you read about breaths of fresh air and you'd half expect a force ten gale to be blowing through the music industry but here, we have the real deal: a singer songwriter liberated from the acoustic guitar fixation that preoccupies so many; a teenage popstar with a good head on her shoulders and a sharp mind in her head. The first Australian release for Charli XCX is the 'You're The One' EP. It features tracks 'You're The One', 'Nuclear Seasons', 'Stay Away' and 3 remixes. Charli XCX's new single 'Stay Away,' draws inspiration from the T'Pau, 1980s one-hit wonder "Heart and Soul", the track with its synths pulse and gothic fervour, Charli effortlessly toggles between careful restraint and operatic emotionalism. 'You're The One,' is a dark and dreamy love song, it will feature on her as-yet-untitled debut album which she is working and collaborating with Ariel Rechtsh |
