SINGLE REVIEW: Ed Boxall - She Smiles and You're Born Again
Ed Boxall shares his stunning new single 'She Smiles and You're Born Again' taken from the album "Your Big Dream".
A bright, joyful indie pop song sharing the indulgent feeling of falling in love, 'She Smiles and You're Born Again' is a wonderfully positive, unapologetically warming sunshine-laced tune. It will fill your ears with happiness and your heart with a benevolent glow.
Beautifully melodic and charmingly wonky. The elements of imperfection, the slightly scratchy guitars, and off-key vocals truly bring 'She Smiles and You're Born Again' to life. They allow Ed's endearing, friendly demeanor to glisten through.
It's a vibrantly retro-sounding track featuring a hazy jubilant soundscape of uplifting folky guitars and some 60s, psychedelic-infused moments. It transports the listener back to romantic days of young love and playful summers.
I particularly like the reference to Andy's Records; it makes me remember being 16 and excited to browse the shelves spending all my money on bands I'd never heard of because I like the cover art.
'She Smiles and You're Born Again' is a glorious dreamscape of people weaved in love, making memories and enjoying blissful, tender moments. It also captivates with the powerful message to always be kind.
Ed has a magically unique voice; he's a superb songwriter channeling real-life themes in a homely manner. Catchy and alluring 'She Smiles and You're Born Again' is simply magnificent!
