Single Review | Passenger - Let Her Go

Passenger
Let Her Go - Single
Embassy of Music / Black Crow / Sony / Warner / Nettwerk
Release date: July 24, 2012

First of all, I'm obsessed with Passenger's 'Let Her Go'. I'm such a slow poke this time since the single is released way back in 2012, like, two years ago, and no one is aware of it until mid last year. For your information, Passenger is initially a group, but the band dissolved back in 2009 after ten years of being together, and the front man, Michael David Rosenberg, decided to keep the group's name for his solo project. 

'Let Her Go' is a folk-pop which sounds amazing thanks to its simple tempo. I do agree, Rosenberg's vocal is so distinct, it does compliment the music arrangement quite well. In my opinion, the song's generic lyrics makes it super catchy and successful. Despite the simplicity of 'Let Her Go', the arrangement, tempo and amplitude changes, creating that perfect sound with a simple percussive drum beat suitable for one slow dance with your missus.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars.
