Its difficult not to appreciate a song that sounds like it was solely made for rooftop parties. John.k evokes exactly that on If We Never Met, a soulful, simple pop tune about the what ifs in a life without someone special.
If We Never Met builds upon itself. It starts fairly bare: John.ks warm voice is merely joined by a simple guitar strum as drum fills begin to fill the layers beneath. The singer wonders what his life would be like without his lover, assuming that the single version of him would be drunk, waking up in someone elses bed or generally lost. The vision is dark but the reality is much sweeter, making the song more upbeat and breezy a perfect summertime sunset soundtrack.
John.k broke through in 2017 with his song OT and released his debut EP, If We Never Met, this past April.
