World Premiere! The Veronicas - "On Your Side": Full Audio + Review
Wasn’t particularly a fan of The Veronicas’ self-titled 2014 third studio album but the sound of this new era they’re coming with I am loving… hopefully there will be more tracks like this. Cohesiveness is the key!
The Australian twin-sis duo premiered a new single called “On Your Side” today (Oct. 14) and it is music from their upcoming fourth studio album, whose release date is yet a mystery but my bet is that it will be in stores by the end of this year or in early 2017. It would be the usual time frame when your lead single drops in October.
“On Your Side” was co-produced by hitmakers Wayne Hector and Jim Eliot, and yes, you are correct, this is the most ‘commercial’ The Veronicas have ever sound. This song is synth-EDM! But not the clubby kind of one. It is uplifting but it boasts more of a subdued EDM beat. It’s really nice, nonetheless, and fitting with the song's vibe.
The Veronicas sing in this new single about wishing future happiness to their former boyfriends despite the awful heartbreak. “ “Life isn’t pretty we all get a little wrecked sometimes/ If God’s listening, people think you’re out of your mind / Even if you believe it/ Through all the hard times / I’m on your side”, the girls declare on the chorus.
