Smashproof - Paint Fade Feat. Drew



Sometimes songs come along that sound almost predictable, so easy to listen to, so obviously relevant that a songwriter might ask his/herself....how didn't I write that? It's not hard to make the case that's because the gap between artifice and a great song is the writer's integrity. Being real. "Paint Fade" sounds almost manufactured, but it grabs, delivers an enormous dopamine hit, and that is maybe because it is a simple, but real communication of how all of us sometimes feel when away from home for a long time, or missing someone special. I can identify with the sentiment. Professional execution, enormous chorus, it is superb. Chris Graham's video goes right where it should. Despite sounding like an international hit, this is a truly New Zealand song that deserves to be as successful as the other enormous hit that Smashproof had in the mid-2000s with "Brother". Special production job by Twice As Nice. And so great to see Drew Neemia as part of this group. I think he should have a permanent role to be honest as he completes what is essentially a hip-hop only line-up. You can buy the single at the link below. Go buy it. (and don't rip these guys off by downloading pirated copies)
