Failure can bruise your head. It can be easy to succumb to such injuries and forget the beauty that’s still swirling around you. Theatrical pop storyteller and blog favorite Daisy Royce gathers her wits about her and toasts to the good she finds tucked away in the bad. “Champagne” is bubbly to the touch, predominantly pinned with acoustics and strings, which allows Royce to swim in a sea of lush and enveloping imagery. “I used to wish to just be pretty / So my heart skips if anybody looks when I look in the room,” she rends her heart, cooing between the gap. Her melancholy quickly bursts into a glistening, glowing yellow brick road, as she gallops off into the rose-tinted sunset. And we should follow. It’s our duty.
“Champagne” is the latest in a string of releases this year, including “Series of Two-Week Love Stories.”
