maryjoy truly gives us a three minute vocal masterpiece with “Cleveland”.
In this home-sick and soul defying tale, she really puts her deepest emotions on display in the best way she knows how; with incredible high notes and range.
Her honestly in lyrics like, “I tell everyone I meet / I’m as happy as can be / And I’m perfect if you don’t look underneath”, really take the song to a new level. In this soul crushing tune of honesty and mental health, she creates a moment that so many can resonate with.
When she strips down the song during the bridge, the listener can really feel the rawness of her vocals and join her on the emotional journey that she’s trying to convey. The production, vocals, and lyrics all come together to create this gorgeous tune.
