Marian Hill
Down
WE SAY
Chosen as the soundtrack to Apple’s worldwide ad campaign promoting their Air Pods and the iPhone 7, this song by duo Marian Hill is already stacking up enormous statistics. Shazam's No.5 globally this week and growing rapidly here in the UK, it’s already topped more than 23 million Spotify streams. Across America, it’s the most-added track at US pop radio, the greatest gainer on the Pop Radio airplay chart and Shazam’s No.1 there. It’s one of those songs that stops you in your tracks when you hear it. A plaintive piano hook motif runs throughout whilst the stripped back, minimal production from Jeremy Lloyd pulls the listener in when the sweet vocal from Samantha Gongol starts. Then the electronic beat drops to create one of those moments when you feel powerless to resist as the catchy chorus demands your attention. It comes from they album Act One, which gets a full proper release and promotional push from March 24. Proving that all it often takes these days to create a massive smash is a great vocal and a laptop, this has everything in place to be one of 2017’s biggest songs.
