9.8.12 - New Music - The Wanted

Well, this was basically expected.

The Wanted released their new single “I Found You” yesterday, and it sounds a lot like…well…that. Actually, it sounds a lot like their worldwide smash “Glad You Came”, doesn’t it? Right from the beginning we get that polka/accordion thing. Lately that’s been a bit of a trend, and while I am fine with artists hopping on trends in their music, do we need to do it that much? Two singles is a lot of accordion.

The song is produced by Steve Mac, who has worked with pretty much everyone in the world. I personally think the song is alright, but there’s a whole lotta falsetto going on. Five guys hitting the highest of high notes? It’s a lot to handle.

Altogether the song is fine though. Poppy, dancey, fun. I’m good with all that.

“I Found You” isn’t available yet, but something tells me in the next month or so it will be.
