George FitzGerald – “Call It Love (If You Want To)” (Feat. Lawrence Hart)
British producer George FitzGerald is on the cusp of releasing his debut full-length, Fading Love, and he’s shared another track off the LP, “Call It Love.” Featuring Lawrence Hart — who also contributes vocals on “Crystallise” — the track is a glimmering standoff between what we say and what we mean. Although it’s ostensibly about love, the melancholy song pulses with a resigned unfulfillment. “If you say it’s not enough, then it’s not enough,” Hart croons, as the tension-ridden synths build to a breaking point behind him, and that detached apathy speaks volumes. This is what it sounds like to let love fade away; listen to the slow-spinning slip below.
UPDATE: The entire album is streaming now via iTunes. Listen here.
