Miguel - Sure Thing

[POP!]

This is having a resurgence of sorts, at least in America. it's right outside the US top ten on Spotify and looks like it may re-enter the Hot 100 top 50 next week. I wouldn't be surprised if they push it at radio a la "Die for You".

 

[funky]

It’s shooting up the U.K. charts too

Apparently it’s a TikTok clip that has caused the resurgence but it’s one of those sped up chipmunk versions ( ) so all the people in the YouTube comments on the original video are asking why it has been slowed down

This was my introduction to Miguel, one of my favourite artists of the last decade. He’s done better but I do really like it.

 

[Shoat]

Sped up chipmunk versions are SHIT

But I'm all for it if this can propel Miguel into the public consciousness

Certainly as far as the UK goes, he's an artist who's always been slept on. This week is the first time he's managed a solo top 40 appearance in his career.

 

[VV]

I can't recall ever hearing it before... It's ok - nothing to really shout home about though.

I should really try the album(s). Do You is quite simply one of the most stunning songs I've ever heard.

Do You is a hidden gem if ever there was one.
