Song of the Week- I Will Never Let You Down by Rita Ora featuring Calvin Harris

When I heard a snippet of this song featured in a Rimmel advert it definitely had me excited, and now that I have heard the full song, I can definitely say that this is the perfect track to kick off things for the release of Rita Ora's upcoming sophomore album. The track is a bubbly, upbeat dance pop number that finds the singer riding high on a wave of love. Lyrically the singer expresses feelings of joy as she tells this person that she will always be there for them, even when they think they have had enough of life. Wrapped around a deliciously rich pop chorus, the song finds Ora in fine vocal form, as she utilises the range of her voice to create a delicate flow to the track and allow both herself and the listener to bask in this warm euphoria. Production wise the singer has a perfect partner in the form of current boyfriend and hit making DJ, Calvin Harris. Whilst the dance beats of the song definitely have a signature Harris feel, the overall production is a soaring piece of dance music driven by slightly funky guitar riffs, creating the perfect pop sound to extend the feeling of euphoria. And once again Harris shows why he is the go to collaborator for today’s commercial music scene, because he brings out the best of Ora whilst not compromising on her artistry. If you are feeling a bit down at the moment, then give I Will Never Let You Down a listen, because it just might perk you up, and have you loving life for a blissful three minutes.
