If you want this love, got to hold it tight Never let it go, baby, let it give you life (give you life) If you want this love, got to hold it tight Never let it go, baby, let it give you life ... Review “Love So Soft” is one of two singles released upon the announcement of “Meaning of Life,” the “American Idol” winner’s seventh album. There are retro cues and vibes on this minor-key pop record, which prove to be a perfect match for Clarkson. Such cues include the punchy*, boxy drums, gospel*-driven backing vocals and horns. The repetitive, biting chorus is modern, in line with the gimmicky* pop that dominates the industry these days. The singer’s pitch is great, her tone ripe, and the nuances add the cherry on top. |
