I casually came across Emeli Sandé’s music, while watching one of my favorite shows – Single Ladies. Her song “Lifetime” played during season 2, episode 14. And, you know that thanks to the wonders of technology I was able to shazam the song and find out whom she was.
And that is how I fell in love with her…and I have been playing her music ever since. I shared my finding of her fantastic songs with a friend of mine who loves heart-breaking ballads as much as I do. “Where I sleep”, “My Kind Of Love”, “Next To Me”, “Heaven”, “River” and “Lifetime” are my absolute favorite tracks from her album Our Version Of Events. There is something magical about her music, it can soothe a broken heart, it can make you fall in love even more with that special someone, her music stirs hidden emotions (listening to Emeli Sandé, makes me feel just like when I heard Adele for the first time, “Chasing Pavements” was the song that made me fall in love with her music.)
I recently watched the Brit Awards, where Emeli scored Best British Female and Best British Album, seeing her perform even if it was on TV blew me away!
“I think I’m a very unlikely popstar. This is an album I wrote because I didn’t have the confidence to say these things in person. And for me, that so many people have connected with this album and have found strength in these words makes me feel incredible…” -
