NEW SINGLE BY TODD & KAREN |
☟☞ NOMINATED SINGLE OF THE YEAR! ☜☟ |
➥ A WONDERFUL GREAT REVIEW BY GHANA ONLINE MAG DULAXI |
Yet another of the greats released on Friday March 10, 2023, by the very charming Norwegian/Irish duo Todd & Karen. Needless to say “Blackpool Lights” is a tribute to an exciting place to be. Not as pretentious as its rivals in the west but certainly more cute, charismatic, delightful and much more friendly in all aspects. Todd & Karen’s fifth song to be released recalls early The Kinks in its great arrangements, songwriting and lyrical play, and starts out with the really great and exciting “Do You Know What I’d Like to Do?”, and so the story begins. Enjoy & have a great ride. Cheers! |

"Hey! Loved the vocals on this one. Also cool piano on this one too. Great lyrical concept and great progression of the instrumental. However I must admit that the overall vibe wasn't 100% for me"
"Positve vibes with nice vocals <3 i enjoyed the quality production but the melody wasn't quite for me, sorry."
"Ah, Blackpool lights! That's a sweet concept for a song. The music is also sweet. I like the melodies. It sounds Beatlesque. Felt though that this could be a bit more dynamic overall. Glad to hear more!"

"Absolutely a charming and heartfelt classic indie pop performance. I like the British vibe. Unfortunately, I feel the melody's a little too mainstream for my playlist, but I wish you the best of luck."
