Jessie J is back with a flurry of high notes in the video for her latest little escapade, "LaserLight," serves as the seventh overall single from the re-release of her debut LP, "Who You Are." The repackaged album will also include her international single "Domino" and brand new track "My Shadow." The David Guetta-produced, and 'Titanitum'-inspired cut, boast boisterous lyrics about a missing love, will be available for purchase on May 14th.As you can imagine, the Guetta tune is an upbeat, shimmering dance-pop jam that has Jessie declaring, "You make me feel good, you make me feel safe, you make me feel like I could live another day." It sees the 24-year-old UK Pop powerhouse' collaborating with Guetta for a rather subdued and random track. The song may be 'generic' for Guetta's catalogue of songs, but for Jessie, it is exploring a new 'genre' in this new mellow/yet dance tune. Yet, it is clearly time for Jessie to progress to a new era of her career.
The French DJ has the ability to create that emotion down-to-a-tee with his derivative/reductive music production. So it's no surprise that it's just what Jessie is serving up on new for track "LaserLight." What struck me most about "LaserLight," is how concise the vocal is. No runs, no over the top belts, just a clean and solid delivery of a melody that finally allows a listener to appreciate her voice's tone and timbre without the audio/mental overload usually provided by the tricks and trills she so loves.
In the new video, the British pop diva steps out of the dark, and walking the city, in a movie theater, surrounded by many laser lights, and in the club. For the verses, she is seated in a dark movie theater and in the backseat of a car, with her hair slicked back off her forehead and giant hoop earrings. She's ever-fashionable, especially in that leather jacket with pointed, protruding spikes on the shoulders. Those are fierce, not to mention dangerous. When she rockets into the upbeat, bouncy chorus, she comes alive and springs to her feet, dancing, singing and surrounded by laserlights. Jessie is incredibly animated, using her hands, her face, her mouth and her eyes to express herself.
