Wrap Me Up - Clare Easdown (Pop)   Clare Easdown’s Wrap Me Up could also easily double as an entry at a slam poetry reading. The lyrics are beautifully constructed, and equally beautifully delivered. Tonality, there’s a Mel C quality to Clare, reminding us of some of her post-Spice Girls solo efforts. Clare has an excellent command of her words, and her delivery and enunciation feel very intentional—this is someone who is paying attention to detail. Clare perfectly delivers the vulnerability and fragility required by the message of the track, which is complemented by an almost R&B/trap instrumental production—crisp snares/hats with a driving 808. This is a track to wind down to—so light your candle, pour a glass of wine and lose yourself in this lush production.

Best Lyric: “Wrap me up in a silk, soft sheet. Whisper me words of beauty.”
