Jessie Ware “Still Love Me”
The music in “Still Love Me” sorta creeps and slinks around, echoing lyrics that pose questions about a romance that’s gone a bit sour. It’s a song that is, on every level, about uncertainty, but Jessie Ware’s phrasing on her lead vocal parts goes against that grain – she lets on a bit of wounded defensiveness, but her tone is stern and sure. This relationship may be a mess, but she knows her love is real, and you can tell she really wants to know if her partner still loves her too. She sounds willing to fight for this, at least if they’re up to the challenge as well.
