More from the New Classic Vocal Era: “Say You Love Me” by @JessieWare

JESSIE WARE, “Say You Love Me”

29 year old British singer Jessie Ware had many fine moments on her debut album Devotion two years back.  But the songs that she’s been releasing thus far from her sophomore album Tough Love show that these songs are joining a new classic vocal era that was raised to new heights by Adele four years ago.  Sam Smith is the male comparator, of course, and he and Adele and Jessie Ware can join forces and send us all into complete bliss.  “Say You Love Me” is lilting and dreamy pop that is awoken with a choral climax that helps make the song memorable.  The video showcase is simple and understated and all Jessie.  Brilliant and chart bound internationally!  North America gets Tough Love on October 21, eight days after the UK and other countries.  I’m looking forward to seeing her show on October 26 in Toronto 🙂
