If you’ve heard anything from the London-based artist Arlo before, you’ll recall the playful beats, big pop choruses and soulful overtones of tracks like ‘Shake The Room’ and ‘Safe’, but proving that he isn’t a one-trick pony, Arlo offers something different with ‘Settle’. A painfully honest piano ballad that exposes the singer-songwriter’s regrets and heartbreak. His delicate touch is propelled by sweeping, orchestral violins and a grand piano; the emotion becoming deeply real throughout the song. Speaking about his latest single, Arlo says, "Settle is about doing everything in your power to be loved or wanted. It's full of desperation and hopelessness. It's my most vulnerable moment on record. We all want to be loved by somebody one day. This is real heartbreak filled with real rejection, something I think most people can relate to." - HT
