‘Worth’ is quite a refreshing new song to experience. The instrumentation behind the track builds up in a gentle, ballad-like manner, and the leading vocal on top of this has a softness to it that carries the melody beautifully. The melody itself is quite familiar sounding at first, but as the track develops and evolves, more and more appears about it that indicates it is indeed something fresh. The emotion of the song is endearing and greatly appealing.
There’s a lot that is very human about the words, and the artist performs the lyrics and the melodies with genuine passion. The performance has a subtlety to it that is quite rare. There is nothing literally loud about the song, but the quiet nature of the singing speaks a greater volume in a way – you’re inclined to listen because the sound is so pleasant, comforting, calming, and when you do listen the voice has an innocence and honesty to it that adds additional appeal. The song itself is well written, effectively structured and produced with an appropriately crisp yet warm sound. The song is a good place to start for listeners looking for a new artist to follow.
The feeling and the work that has gone into making the song suggests a realness and a dedication and passion for music that will probably draw many people in to seek out more releases under the same name. The song is easy to listen to, it’s not massively striking but the hook definitely gets in your mind after a single listen, and it’s an enjoyable melody to be left with. As mentioned, the sound is calming, comforting, and really it’s a pleasant piece of music with a strong and unique performance featured throughout.
