SINGLE REVIEW: Sergio Gaetani - The Runner

Single Review
Written By Amy

'The Runner' is a delightful, bouncy Americana ditty that exudes a playful nature. What truly sets it apart is the wonderful interplay of male and female vocals. The male voice carries a gritty rasp, in stark but harmonious contrast to the beautifully rendered tones reminiscent of Dolly Parton.

Around the 2-minute mark, the song takes an engaging turn with a call-and-response interlude that adds a charming twist to the melody. The instrumentation shines, providing the track with a robust underpinning. It evokes the feeling of a spirited country and western chase, as the guitars and drums collide into a lively, rhythmic soundscape. Additionally, the piano adds a layer of whimsical frivolity to the track.

'The Runner' is great, it manages to blend the playful and the soulful, creating a tune that's both fun and artistically rich. It's the kind of song that can't help but leave you with a smile on your face.
