Not a lot of songs grab me by the throat at the first play, but "Ghost" by Ella Henderson did just that! Ella is only 18 years old and rose to fame after participating in the 2012 edition of X Factor UK (James Arthur took home first prize, while Ella came in sixth). She has been into songwriting since she was little, so after her X Factor stint, Ella immediately dove into the studio with none other than One Republic's Ryan Tedder. And we know that Tedder has some major songwriting skills, so together they came up with her debut single "Ghost". The track is a true pop gem that talks about ghosts of boyfriends past that still haunt you today. And no matter what you do, their ghost always lingers around somewhere. Very relatable at the moment in my case, but still, everyone has felt that way about someone at some point! And Ella's voice is truly remarkable! She sounds really mature for a girl that's only 18 years old! This song is bound to be a hit, it was made for mainstream pop radio! Keep up the good work, Ella! Watch the "Ghost" music video below. |
