Ella Henderson Unveils New GLORIOUS Ballad "Hard Work": Must-Listen!
"Chapter One" is going to be the album Leona Lewis wish she had recorded after "Spirit" (I just had to say this). Ella Henderson will be dropping her first studio album (Syco) on October 13th in the UK. I have loved ALL of the songs that have been premiered thus far (seven?) either released as official singles or buzz singles. With each new song that's premiered I've had the feeling that I've loved it more than the previous one. And in the case of the newly-premiered "Hard Work" it is no different. I think "Hard Work" is my favorite Ella song to date - until I hear the next one. The audio of the GLORIOUS ballad - written entirely by Ms. Henderson - was premiered on VEVO this Friday morning (Sept. 26) via a cute "promo" video Ella and her team put together. Watch/hear it below!!
"I know I'm not wasting my time / For you to be the reason I cry / And no I'm not gonna lie / You're hard work / But you're good for me", sings the immensely-talented Ella Henderson in the chorus of her new "Chapter One" song. "Hard Work" is a precious ballad where Ella sings about the ups and downs of a relationship and the feeling of joy when you feel that all the tough moments you and your partner have gone through have been worth it in the sense they have helped the relationship to be stronger and for them to realize they can't live without each other.
Ella reminds me to early Christina Aguilera in a very good way. I just believe everything she sings. And her vocals transmit so much emotion and TRUTH. "Chapter One" is going to be one of my favorite albums of the year, I know it, and I haven't heard it yet!!
