It’s not every day that you get a relatable song, emotionally packed (the type that gets through your skin), and carries an enjoyable melody that could make your feet move. Still, with Charliecityy‘s latest original single “mirror,” it effortlessly fits just that. It is a fun track; there’s no denying that because it carries this electro-pop high-energy sound, yet don’t get fooled; yes, it can make you dance, but the catch is that it’ll get you questioning the very idea of love.
From the get-go, “mirror” will want your full attention, and as the first beats and synths kick in, the catchy tempo, smooth melodies, and interesting chord progressions will satisfy your ears. Feeling the energy and the vibe prickling your skin, the whole pop-electronic vibe of the track will make you want to groove. charliecityy has also managed to take the drama up a notch with his clever use of voice effects, which added to the layer of intensity of the song, polishing the tight production for the track.
Despite its strong production and sound quality, “mirror” is also powered by its well-written lyrics about love that is not returned. The song perfectly catches the whole idea of being stuck in the loop of wanting something to happen and regretting the things that they could’ve done in the situation. All the conflict of emotions and feelings of loss are perfectly captured through each line, and as the tension of the track continues, realizations on the situation kick in as regret and realizations take their course.
Acting as the frontline for charliecityy’s upcoming album, Boys Don’t Lie, dropping this December, there is no denying that “mirror” is a great introduction for this project!
