A new single from songwriter/performer Emma Mae, following on from the mellow glow of ‘She Knows’ and the bittersweet musings and stylish chorus of ‘Boys In Bands’, both from earlier this year. Now ‘When Paris Calls’ showcases another side of Emma’s talent, with a poppy tempo driven by a stop-start rhythm guitar and intricate percussion as an ideal frame for a rich vocal that pulls the listener into the perfectly described emotional turmoil portrayed in the lyric.
The chorus lines are irresistible ‘….when paris calls you run to her….I do my best to understand…you never loved me…c’est la vie…’, as are all the combined elements of this summery pop confection.
