Lucy Burke - On The Edge

On The Edge - Lucy Burke (Pop) The tension starts building right out of the gate in Lucy Burke’s latest track “On The Edge”, fitting considering the name. Sonically, the song feels straight out of late 90s/early 00s, striking us as if it were a club remix of a Top 40 power ballad. We would place “On The Edge” on the charts at the time of Cher’s “Believe,” like if Celine Dion had a rival club mix going on at the same time. The melody is classic pop, which Lucy delivers with one hell of a belt, and beckons a sing along. The song’s greatest strength is its build as “On The Edge” never plateaus, helping to pull the listener deeper and deeper into the track as it progresses.

Best Lyric: “Don’t even ask me, don’t know what to expect.”
