Music Review-ZaZa "Go Back" Single

Artist: ZaZa
Song: Go Back
What I love about ZaZa's sound on this track is that again it brings me back to what music is supposed to be, based on true sheer talent. It's traveling back to the early 90's when music was real. I'm talking about early Mariah Carey, Shanice, and SWV. ZaZa has that beautiful blended sound and harmony that the music industry needs.
Her voice carries the song perfectly. She knows how to use her instrument in a way that just makes the song glide smoothly as if on the edge of her fingertips.
Go Back is upbeat and fun. It tells the tale of wanting to turn back the hands of time to a period where things were good. She sings, "I wanna go back back to the old you, no playing games the way you do now that I told you we were better off back then we didn't feel like we needed to pretend." Despite the upbeat tempo of the song, in the lyrics you can sense the end of this relationship. She wants to go back when things were real, genuine between them. ZaZa also sings "going back to when I knew you." This person has become a stranger to her. She doesn't want to lose this person. This song is like a really good season of your favorite show that gives us quite the cliffhanger. You get the sense that they may not make it yet there may be a glimmer of hope that the other person will realize they're not themselves and will find themselves again. It goes throughout the song this theme of will they won't they make it?
This song has very high potential of being a Top 10 hit. As for ZaZa I love her voice, the tone and the gracefulness even in an upbeat track like this. I look forward to hearing more from her. So don't take my word for it, check out the single yourself on YouTube at ZaZa-Go back (audio).
