Olivia Deane releases 'Cynic Queen' (Single Review)

Blonde haired beauty Olivia Deane from Manchester releases new pop single ‘Cynic Queen’ on April 24th. The track tells a story of falling for the same men that lie, mansplain, and make you think you’re crazy, which results in a loss of faith in love, due to the repetitive nonsense faced prior with previous encounters. This loss of faith forces you to doubt love and romance and become cynical, faithless, and untrusting.  As a result of this she focus’ on self-love and self-discovery, “So now don’t go come my way, i’m going on a love vacation, my heart is begging me for one”

However, for a song titled ‘Cynic Queen’ written by a strong northern woman I expected more of an oomph. Give me more power! More emotion! You’re a strong independent woman who has come to realise their self worth, and who has noted their faults when it comes to picking men, your experiences give you a right to be cynical sometimes. The country twang in the vocals shone through and I’d like to hear more of that. Deane’s impressive vocal range is evident throughout the track, but I think it could’ve been explored more had that emotion and power been behind it. Nonetheless, it is a good pop tune - but why give Beyoncé when you can give Sasha Fierce?
