Setting the tone with a conceptual and nuanced crowd noise detail, Michelle O Faith opens her latest single, Anyone Can Be a Lover with the lyrics, “He said ‘baby what to do, when all the drugs I do, don’t work like you? I got plenty vices too… but we still hit different.'”
As the songs expands, we experience luscious strings and a flawless, nuanced and characterful delivery from the rising London artist who was recently awarded the MOBO fund.
On Anyone Can Be A Lover, Michelle reminisces in this luxurious, narrative-driven composition about an intimate connection she had with a record executive as she delivers the hook, “under the right light, anyone can be a lover…”
The strings production is out of this world, textured and emotive whilst Michelle croons introspectively, “baby do you use, your trauma as your ruse, my hidden muse, does your wife sing your blues?”
Fans of early Lana Del Rey will connect with Anyone Can Be A Lover, and we have been streaming Michelle O Faith‘s wider discography including Black Lolita and Half Naija.
