I rarely review songs that are bona fide pop records, simply because most of them tend to be predictable and repetitive — more of the same, really. However, “Falling (Losing My Mind)” by Deja Renee doesn’t fall into that category. Instead, it plays with a wide range of musical and lyrical ideas that feel fresh and exciting.
Deja Renee’s background in classical voice and jazz truly shines through. She bends and shapes the melody freely, taking it wherever she wants with confidence and control. It’s the kind of assured performance you rarely hear from indie artists. But the vocals are only part of what makes the track stand out. The production is polished and sophisticated, the keyboard work is excellent, and the cleverly crafted vocal harmonies are especially impressive — just listen to the a cappella ending. There’s a lot to love here.
“Falling (Losing My Mind)” is essential listening for any alt-pop fan. It’s a brilliant track that reveals something new with every listen.
