The Song You Won’t Get Over
Clean Bandit and Louisa Johnson review
Only “Happy” from Pharrell Williams kept “Rather Be” from being the most played song of 2014. It put Jess Glynne on the map, who went on to have a very successful solo career and do more great collaborations. It also seemed to put Clean Bandit on the map, but still, they’ve had trouble following it up with something major.
Well, let me tell you, something major has come up by them. It’s their new single, “Tears”, featuring last year’s UK X Factor winner, Louisa Johnson.
Jack Patterson, Luke Patterson, Grace Chatto, and Neil Amin-Smit, who form Clean Bandit, have already proven to mix classical elements with pop music from any era in their songs.
