RM47’s “Strangers” has an emphatic beat that will get listeners out on the dance floor, while the dreamy vocals that play at the top of the track ensure that it has the legs to crossover onto pop rotation. Adding a second set of vocals to the mix provides a boost to Strangers’ momentum, allowing fans to ride out the song with as much momentum as they began it. There’s a fair amount of 1980s soul influence that bubbles through here, while the production of Strangers is sufficiently strong that each contribution is able to contribute to a greater whole.
