The time has finally come for me to listen to Bruno Mars' other big collaboration. I will admit I didn't connect with this as much as I would like, but I won't deny it's a very accomplished song. The chemistry between Mars and Gaga is felt throughout the song and the lyrics are very affective. I say that because we hear lyrics like this all the time and they should come off as generic. But here, they're charming and passionate (which means the singers did a very good job with typical lyrics). I respect that.
So this is my second time reviewing Jekalyn Carr's work. Like the previous song we just talked about, this song is also very accomplished. It has many great qualities such as Carr's vocals and the harmonies (which I'm a sucker for). But I feel like it could've pushed just a little bit harder in some ways. For example, she just says "you carried me" most of the time throughout the song. In terms of bringing people to God, in my opinion it's not very affective. Maybe if it had a stronger hook or sung in a way that sticks, it would be stronger. But don't rely on strong vocals and singing the same thing over and over again.
Thanks for reading
