Following on from the pan-Nordic conquering debut single ‘Undressed’ (and even better, the Oliver Nelson remix of ‘Undressed’ – although we did grow to love the original too in the end), Kim Cesarion today finally premiered his second single. ‘Brains Out’.
It’s another up-tempo, funked up, souled out, pop track that requires a feelgood falsetto sing-a-long when it gets to the chorus. We could reference a dozen or so obvious influences and comparisons, from Prince to Justin Timberlake. But what with this and ‘Undressed’, it’s actually quite clear that what we’re hearing is Kim Cesarion’s own take on the pop SLASH soul SLASH funk thing. If you loved ‘Undressed’, then you’ll love this too. And the impending debut album is sounding quite likely to be crammed full of more radio friendly hits in the same vein.
And don’t worry, the “brains out” bit refers to Kim loving them out – not the other thing.
‘Brains Out’ got its premiere on P3 Radio today in Sweden. Listen to it in full by skipping to the 00:52 point of the below stream;
