A Better Me - Live In Color (Indie Pop) Oh this one is an anthem, and boy does it MOVE. This song just builds and builds and builds and reminds us a lot of Phillip Phillips’ “Home” in both it’s production and how catchy it is. Live In Color’s crystal clear vocals shine, providing a resonant baritone at the top only to head into a strong belt from the first chorus. The production leaves Live In Color’s vocals mostly untouched, relying on the strength of the singer rather than production gimmicks. But what makes A Better Me particularly unique is the sort of “European countryside” folk instrumentation accents throughout. It is incredibly unique and caught our attention immediately. It’s like there’s this “barn jam session” baked within a modern pop production. I could see this song being the ending credits of a Disney film—like on the Brave soundtrack maybe.
Best Lyric: “Live my life like there are no boundaries, let me be a better me.”
