New Music Review - ‘I Got You’ by Park RD
The artwork describes Park RD to a T - super fun! Artwork created by Ziggy Bond.
Colourfully bright and musically appealing, Park RD have recently released their latest, I Got You, moving up the ladder with the greatest of songs that they have previously presented us with.
I Got You is a ball of fun, turning any frowns upside down with how much momentum it has and how shimmery the tune is, a wonderful pick-me-up on those not so shiny days.
The Park RD lads take everything that they’ve got and throw it into the air, making waves of confetti that just takes you to cloud 9. That is what their music feels like to me and certainly that is what I Got You sounds like.
I Got You has catchy hooks that will reel you in and keep you entertained with the different balances of harmonies and short instrumentals, a beneficial point to be able to hear as a listener and important to the band to express.
Tom’s vocals in this song make for a very at ease, comforting movement throughout the song, putting words in their exact places which connects them to being able to be sung with strength, an empowering force to be reckoned with.
While I Got You comes forth as a very summery song, this can be enjoyed all throughout the year. The songs’ relevance is not based on the hot weather and I like the fact that it will carry on being a tune that captures listeners in the present and future, as well as the past.
Park RD are known for their very surf-pop-rock vibes, however, I Got You pulls out a different side to them. It isn’t the surf music that you may have become accustomed to listening to of theirs, but it is certainly special in many other ways. The way Park RD ensure they are utilising their sound to find what works best for them is incredible and makes for a great time.
In I Got You, there is not an inch of sadness, which is quite delightful. It’s a very “throw your hands in the air and shout this track out” type of song and this is something that tends to appeal to a range of audiences - Park RD’s music is attractive to all ages across the board and that in itself, is something that can be hard to achieve.
Take the time to listen to the track right now and check out the epic video that accompanies it!
