KING ANONIMOUS Falls for the Accent on ‘FOREIGNER’
Greetings, accents and everyday customs turn into an open invitation to see life through somebody else’s eyes.
KING ANONIMOUS builds ‘FOREIGNER’ out of the little differences that make a new romance feel like stepping off a plane somewhere you’ve never been. Greetings, accents and everyday customs become the attraction, and the narrator starts wanting to understand the world she comes from.
Electronic drums, deep bass and atmospheric textures hold up the melodic vocal, and the layered parts keep pushing a refrain that gives this contemporary R&B cut a clear center. The verses never have to rush to get their story told.
The best move comes in the narrator’s perspective. What starts as fascination with everything unfamiliar about her turns into a request to see life through her eyes, and that curiosity gives the romance somewhere to go besides a collection of cute differences.
The closing stretch circles back to the refrain and keeps the record locked around its hook. ‘FOREIGNER’ hits right where that repetition meets the invitation to learn the person behind the attraction.
