Bethany Petch – When I Look At Me

A powerful ballad with breathtaking emotional impact.

The emotional intensity of this powerful ballad is breathtaking. The vocals of singer/songwriter Petch are transmitting such a huge amount of emotion and passion that it made me sit there silently staring for the whole song. The soft setting reduces the atmosphere to a minimum to ensure that the message is not thinned by any unnecessary filling element in there. It’s just the reverbed piano, the synths and this fragile room those instruments are creating. In this setting, the voice of Petch centers the attention of the listener from the first notes on. The fragile and vulnerable expression is amplified through the message the song carries, both lyrics and melodies have a huge impact on an emotional level.

You simply can hear that this isn’t just any song for the Canadian multitalent Petch. The track was performed and produced in a very sensitive way, and every detail in there was constructed carefully to maximise the effect and impact on the audience. It’s tracks like ‘When I Look At Me’ that show exactly why hard work pays off when it comes to performing and producing. This tune simply is a well-rounded work of art.
