Buzz Track: Boys Don’t Cry

This is a refreshing cover of The Cure’s Boy Don’t Cry by Rebecca Clements. It has tons of vibe and could be a best movie music moment when paired with a perfect scene. She released the debut EP ‘Pure Wasted’ and was championed by XFM as one of their great Xpectations for 2015. The EP was produced by Irish musician/producer Iain Archer who worked with artists such as Jake Bugg and Bat for Lashes as well as being nominated for a 2013 Ivor Novello award for best song. The lead off track ‘Pure Wasted’ is about the toxicity of love and lets Rebecca’s haunting, but equally beautiful voice shine through softly strummed guitar swirls. Rebecca describes the track: “It’s about losing someone you’re with to the strong stuff. Making a play on words of ‘Pure Wasted’, pulling together the idea of a pure substance and a pure love, both are equally as toxic.”“Essentially, it’s a love song. But I wanted it to feel more than that, to tell a story rather than play the victim.”
