I remember the first time I ever saw Celine Love play live as she supported her friend Cha:dy\u2019s EP launch and I knew at once that this was an artist destined for success; her ability to bring so many genres together into her music is so refreshing. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

In a world where we are so keen to label and identify in an effort to appear as if we are not, Celine manages to be entirely genre fluid. Her music takes the strong lyrical ability taken from her core story telling style and merges seamlessly with the melodies and beats of contemporary R&B giving us cool, modern music but with thoughtful, honest lyrics. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This has never been more evident than in her new single \u2018Temporary Tattoo\u2019; who can resist a turn of phrase like \u201cbad apples might make the sweetest pie\u201d as Celine brings acoustic guitar and dreamy soul together in a wonderful fusion as she examines negative thought patterns. She says:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c\u2018If I bruise a little then I\u2019ll know\u2019 means that I accept that opening my heart could open up old wounds. The inspiration was the literal heart I have tattooed on my wrist. Believe it or not, the same night I performed the song for the first time, was the night I allowed my heart to heal and open itself up to someone new. The outro features a voice note of one of my closest friends expressing the self-growth she\u2019s witnessed within me. I wanted to add it because it described perfectly why I felt ready to love again.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

 The second song of this recent release is \u2018No Longer Fun\u2019 which feels very much like the other side of the coin featuring the line: \u201cIf you don\u2019t feel the same it would hurt, but it would be worse if you do\u201d which seems to suggest to me that moment in a relationship when one of you realises the fire has burned out and that it\u2019s no longer fun but when you are both afraid to bite the bullet. The beauty of music and lyrics are that they can mean different things to different people; the song very much felt like an end to me, however, the artist reveals a different take on the lyrics as she says:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis song feels like the opposite of \u2018Temporary Tattoo\u2019 because it describes falling for someone but being afraid those feelings will change once they are reciprocated. \u2018Hate the game but once it\u2019s done, it\u2019s no longer fun\u2019 describes the fear that the person you are opening your heart to is only in it for the chase. Creating and performing these songs has uplifted me in so many ways and I hope it can give others a sense of hope as well\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

For the first time, Celine has produced her own music; writing and recording in her bedroom with each track exploring the different fears of opening your heart. So, you can imagine how exciting it is that BBC Radio 1 DJ Victoria Jane gave Celine her first spin with \u2018Temporary Tattoo\u2019 on her Future Soul programme. Having seen the artist live several times I\u2019m so excited for her and I\u2019m sure this will be the first of many appearances on the radio. Celine Love is a name that you must remember. Stream her music, try to catch her live; she\u2019s amazing and you\u2019re still in with a chance of being able to say I was there at the start when she\u2019s selling out our major venues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
