Selena Gomez is a pop culture juggernaut. Music, tv and film, she is seemingly gliding and conquering each of these art disciplines with grace and now measured maturity. While gearing up for her leading lady portrayal of Linda Ronstadt in her biopic drama, Selena thought she would drop a new single.
“Love On,” is an irresistible pop tune begging the listener top hop in their convertible, top down, and soak in the sun and this light tempo feel good song.
The song is itself opens as dream-state of Gomez waking up, speaking in French. As the volume of the song climbs so does Selena’s proclamation of “wait till I turn my love on…” First verse flows over muted keys and again a rising tempo that opens with the first chorus. Bright, confident vocals over an easy synth beat that doubles up in key moments for a very delightful music romp.
The song knows what it is, so you don’t get any hard driving dance beats or worse over bearing vocals. Gomez doesn’t need to show off or compete, she’s 100% into her natural voice. This pop song sets the listener for a summer of limitless sea side brunches and beach like horizons. Love from Selena. What a treat.
