Robyn McCorquodale’s Eagle is a song that draws upon the proud American music of the mid-20th century. One could easily see this as a musical interlude in a “boys go to war” B&W film. Robyn’s vocals soar above the delicately-crafted instrumentation, establishing a situation where listeners will be eagerly hanging on every word. The gradual inclusion of electronic-tinged drums to the mix keeps the song’s momentum high while allowing Robyn ample opportunity to expand the song’s reach. The vocal-drawn melody will stick with fans long after Robyn closes up shop. Truly a delight to experience, Eagle is something that stands boldly out from what represents common fare today.
