This song is a blast. “The High Road” by Essy is an infectious pop-electronica track that will have you dancing in your seat. Essy possesses a powerful vocal delivery reminiscent of Katy Perry, but avoids the pitfalls of shallow lyrics. Instead, “The High Road” paints a vivid picture of a small-town girl yearning for escape, her ambitions fueled by a desire for something more. The narrative of the song is great song-story telling.
The song is driven by an upbeat tempo and a pulsating synthesizer line that perfectly complements the song’s energetic vibe. “The High Road” is an anthem for anyone who dreams of breaking free from their limitations and chasing their own definition of success.
It’s catchy, but not corny. Put this on your up tempo playlists… maybe a road trip or a party. I don’t know what you kids do anymore.
