London-based act Fall of Passion present a theatrical, throwback appeal on new single “Never Gonna Let You Go,” which releases alongside a video that plays enjoyably like a historical drama. The period piece setting aligns compellingly with the music’s orchestral infusions and vibrant vocal melodics, conjuring a pop sound that’s magnetic and approachable. The video takes place across a variety of noted locations — including Buckinghamshire’s Black County Park, Chiswick House and Gardens, and London’s Porchester Hall.
“Never Gonna Let You Go” engages throughout, and especially in its chorus. “You think you know me, but I’m gonna show you just how,” the vocals launch into an exhilarating sequence, where dreamy wordless vocals, melodic electric guitars, and spirited strings converge with memorable impact. The chorus in general — with its twinkling keys and rousing vocals amidst the orchestral-pop charm — makes for a replay-inducing appeal throughout. A scorching guitar solo enamors thereafter, as the vocals question if one is able to run away — into a satiating close. “Never Gonna Let You Go” is a resonating success from Fall of Passion.
