Clair Reilly-Roe, a singer/songwriter from Canada via New York, turns in a delicate ballad that is characterized by her sensual and whispery vocals. The track is reminiscent in tone and temperament to Prince’s When We’re Dancing Close And Slow from his self-titled debut in 1979, and is perfect for placement in a movie or tv scene where the characters share their first intimate moment. Using a soft and delicate production that palpitates like a relaxed heartbeat, Clair sprinkles seductive and inviting vocals over gentle guitar chords that arouse and engage your emotions…leaving space for you to conjure up your own thoughts. Music supervisors take note.
