Introducing a rather fearless and artistic representation of genuine emotional realism – Sierra Stone injects an unwavering degree of character and originality into the pop format, with the boldly evolving power and presence of A Man Like You.
From intimate, acoustic beginnings, we follow this stripped-back voice and its piano counterpart, through a story that openly reflects upon the strains and struggles of relationship difficulty and self-disappointment.
The lyrics are fascinating, strangely relatable, and Sierra’s willingness to really go there is refreshing. The music then builds up accordingly, and we end up consumed by this dreamy to euphoric outcry on behalf of regret and uncertainty.
Somewhat Lana-remisncent in the meandering from vocal delicacy to depth and weight, the performance rolls along in a long-form theatrical fashion, securing a unique nuance amidst the current pop scene, as Sierra Stone develops both the story and emotional poignancy of the song.
The soundscape production follows suit effectively, the power of the arrangement gathering clear momentum, as the voice and lyrics pour through and culminate in this piercing announcement of never finding another Man Like You.
Cleverly distinct, incomparable from a songwriting perspective, and unafraid to really dig into the details of its own concept – by way of vocals that authentically connect to the subject matter at hand – Sierra Stone hits with impact for this single, and lays down a strong foundation for the originality and expression set to follow.
