Canadian singer-songwriter of
alternative music, Johnny Good, has released his newest single, “Your
Love.” The single is the predecessor to and harbinger of his
upcoming LP album, “FEAR.” The single itself is a bluesy rock
track with a classic '60s feel that features Beatles-esque clean
channel guitar work, beautiful brass accompaniment, and
straightforward, no-nonsense drumming, all of which are played deep
in the groove. The most prominent attribute of Johnny Good's track
remains, like most if not all of Good's work, his own raw, rich
vocals.
His singing on “Your Love” is
heartfelt, direct, and full of passionate power that contrasts well
against the easy, romantic roll of the track to create a sense of
tragic urgency. However this overarching tone never edges near
melodrama, thanks to the live, classic feel of the song, which Good
manages to perform like a rockabilly cross between Ray Charles and
John Lennon. Still, for a proper understanding of Johnny Good's
music, it must be understood that Johnny Good is not a “character
actor” of the microphone, and that he sings with a wide variety of
nuance across a number of styles throughout his rapidly growing
repertoire, which in itself is fairly diverse and shows a
considerable amount of scope.
This comprehensive approach to music
writing and performance adds a level of depth and complexity to even
the most pop-minded aspects of Good's music (which aspects are
relatively few – his tracks feel as if each song is written for its
own sake). Of this stylistic elasticity, Good says, ”I suppose I
have a bit of ADD with things and don’t like to do the same thing
for too long. I get bored really easily, and in order for it maintain
my attention I need it to be a constant challenge.”
Finding a constant challenge cannot
have been easy over an entire lifetime. Johnny Good, a literal born
natural to music, has been penning songs since the tender age of
three. ”I was an artist even before I knew what the word meant,”
he says. “Things just spoke through me and as a child I never
questioned it... When I was three years old, I used to sit on the
corner of our street and play the harmonica and tell jokes as a
busker. My father always got a kick out of it. I really should have
known sooner then I did.”
His fans worldwide know, too. “Your
Love” by Johnny Good is on online shelves globally as of January,
2013.
