"Who the fuck is Foxes?!"I'm not kidding. Three different audiophiles wrote that to me.
Most people know Foxes as the female singer featured on Zedd's Grammy award-winning single, "Clarity."
Well, this year, Foxes (Louisa Rose Allen, born 4/29/89) came out with her own album, Glorious. And it is quite good. Foxes has co-writing credits on all of the songs on the album. Her vocals have been compared to more girlish versions of Kate Bush, Irene Cara, and Bonnie Tyler.
Because there aren't too many weak spots, you can play Glorious straight through. However, I'd like to turn your attention to the Deluxe version, which features 5 bonus tracks, including an acoustical version of "Clarity." These bonus tracks are every bit as good as the album proper. I don't know why they were left off of the standard album.
2014 has seen a ton of new music come out. There's just too much to choose from. I can't vouch for your locale, but here in the Bay Area, the two most ubiquitous songs are Echosmith's "Cool Kids" and Taylor Swift's "Shake It Off," both of which I like.
In an earlier post here on Hip Pop Stop, I wrote about Erasure's The Violet Flame, which includes that tasty bit of ear candy, "Elevation." But I'm going to go out on a limb, and nominate Foxes' "Let Go For Tonight" as Song Of The Year. Check it, and the rest of Glorious, out.
