New Music - Betty Who

While it may not be an official single, I’ll take literally anything from Betty Who, because you just know it’s going to be gold.

“Runaways” is a powerpop gem, and just another sign that her full length debut Take Me When You Go is going to be one of the best first acts in pop in quite some time. The song makes me feel a certain wanderlust that I do my best to suppress, if only because my wallet can only handle so much spontaneous travel. Betty makes me want to leave it all and drive, as the song suggests.

The track is so easy to like upon a first listen, some pop stars (and their million-dollar producers) should take a lesson. Betty not only gets you hooked within just a few seconds, she gets you hooked every time.
