BEST NEW SONGS: FRANCES - SAY IT AGAIN

7/3/16

UK-based songstress Frances is prepping her debut LP, and with her newest single, “Say It Again,” she’s got a song that’ll burrow its way into the core of your consciousness.

Frances co-wrote the track with Greg Kurstin, a frequent collaborator of Adele, Sia, and Beck. “Say It Again” is a straight forward love song that manages to be both simplistic and powerful. The power comes from Frances’ robust vocals on the chorus that manage to send a charge through you while not being overwhelming. It’s a hell of a trick and she pulls it off effortlessly. Are we sure this gal is only 23 years old? Ignore that, her age is unimportant. I’m just feeling old this morning. Just listen to the damn song already!

 

FRANCES - SAY IT AGAIN

Still no release date or title for Frances debut album, which is expected to drop this fall. “Say It Again” is said to be on this mysterious album. But even if it’s not, we’re gonna leave you with they lyrics to Frances “Say It Again”:

you run with the sun in your eyes
arms open to whatever you find
then there's me
hopelessly trying to find a way
of hearing three little words form your mouth
and not filling this heaven with doubt
humor me, i know you've said it but

say it again
i wanna know that you mean it, this time
say it again
i know that i should believe it
but i never thought someone
would love me like you say you do
say it again, and i'll say it back to you

you're holding my heart in your hands
and it's the safest feeling i've had, it can't be true
someone like you, feels this way for me
i hear three little words from your mouth
and my heart can't figure it out
so humor me, i know you've said it but

say it again
i wanna know that you mean it, this time
say it again
i know that i should believe it
but i never thought someone
would love me like you say you do
say it again, and i'll say it back to you

i know you've said it but just
say it again
i wanna know that you mean it, this time
say it again
i know that i should believe it
but i never thought someone
would love me like you say you do
so say it again, and i'll say it back to you
