Sky Ferreira
:: November 14, 2012 :: by Paige Winston
When I first heard Sky Ferreira, she was singing about going to clubs underage, and obsessing over one vice or another. With a more mature take on music these days, Sky has progressed into something more relatable and pertinent. On the first track “Sad Dream,” she is on the foreground of an acoustic guitar that guides the tune to a sweet sounding enchanting chorus.
“Lost In My Bedroom,” has more of an early 90’s feel. It’s something between Madonna and Nena’ s “99 Red Balloons.” I won’t lie, it makes me want to dance.
Sky Ferreira has progressed more so then I’m used to as a listener—especially in the genre of pop. She’s approached this EP with a more retro take on pop, making it entirely her own. There’s something about pushing past the materialism and glamour while still remaining a pop artist that has made me take to Ferreira.
