This one is for all the romantics at heart– the ones who love being in love and gentle affection. Niamh Evans’ newest single “Easy” is all about that easy kind of love, and the simplicity it brings. Loving another person doesn’t need to be hard, and it should come like the flowing of a river: steady, strong, and effortless. Painted in soft tones and a delicate soundscape reminiscent of Gracie Abrams and Taylor Swift, Evans captures that perfect feeling of loving someone without trouble. When unexpected kisses and dinners in stairwells, hands holding your face and longing gazes, softness and tenderness, are what make your heart beat, “Easy” is going to be the song for you. This single is made especially for the kind of love that makes us giddy, a little bit nervous, but so overwhelmingly adoring.
Do you love love? Do you love romance? And do you love the fluttery feeling in your stomach when you look at that certain someone? If so, you're going to adore Evans’ “Easy”. It’s hard to explain just how lovely this song is, being all fondness; it reminds me of lying in a large field during a sunny, summery day next to the exact person that “Easy” talks about. Everything about the track fits its message– the soundscape is especially compelling, and I definitely had the song on loop after the first time I heard it. I really enjoyed the gentle guitar strums, and this climbing, uplifting sound that follows the entire runtime; the percussion is very moderate, and the sonically temperate soundscape helps to enforce the song’s overall theme of easy love. I’m also an enjoyer of its lyrics, quite particularly the line that goes, “Love should always feel this easy”. I think it’s a superb piece of writing that truly encapsulates everything that the song is telling its listeners. In addition to that, the narrator speaks of friends teasing them about their blushing, and of simple dates that need no superfluous decoration or celebration– even a dinner eaten in a stairwell can be the most romantic of meals if it’s with the right person. “Easy” is made of such sweetness and light that will melt your heart and bring your thoughts to whoever makes your love life easy and simple.
