Song of the Week - Never Give Up

It's not often I pick a song out of the "dance" section on iTunes, but sometimes it just feels right. I know nothing about this group (so don't expect this one to go on for long), but I do know the song is hot. Two artists this time - ATB and Ramona Nerra.

The song has a much more traditional dance vibe than I'm used to. It's not this new wave dance we hear on the radio -- this is what it was originally meant to be in the realm of straight up techno. The beat would be perfect for dancing in a club of almost any kind, and given the recent draw of mainstream music to the club scene, this might be a nice breath of fresh air for those who have been there for a while.

Ramona's vocals are on par with most of those in the same field. The lyrics themselves are sparse and repetitive, which is what one would expect coming into this situation. The song is about a love that can last through anything, but the majority of the song is just her reassuring she will never give up on you. Despite it's weaker lyrics, I really found this song appealing.

You can buy the song on iTunes.
