Jack Red
“Sometimes”
Digital Single
It’s the day before your wedding — what are you thinking about? The flowers, your hair, keeping your stepdad away from the bridesmaids? Not Jack Red. Jack Red is THINKING ABOUT ANOTHER GIRL?!?!? DUDE, WHAT ARE YOU DOING??? While his wedding is likely to go worse than Mark’s from Peep Show, at least it yielded a breathtaking song, and “Sometimes” highlights the Chicago singer’s evocative vocals and affecting storytelling. At the risk of being hyperbolic, there’s a hint of Nostalgia, Ultra here, from the soaring falsetto to the non-traditional R&B arrangement. He’s only just getting started as a solo artist, and it will be fascinating to see how 2016 plays out for him…and this marriage.
