"Listen: Michaela May - 'When You Say'"

Michaela May is one of our favourite on-the-verge-of-hugeness songwriter/singers and hook-stuffed forthcoming cingle 'When You Say' is tip of an extremely large iceberg of pop wonder.
There's loads and loads and loads of interesting stuff on Michaela's SoundCloud; many of these songs wouldn't sound out of place on albums by global a-listers.
As a songwriter Michaela clearly has a huge future and as a performer she stands a decent chance too.

"Drink It Up!"

Already proven to ourselves that she is confidently capable of fronting a big power pop song, Scottish born, London based singer/songwriter Michaela May follows up on last years debut release of “When You Say” by teasing new track “Drink It Up!”.

Interestingly although, Michaela’s roots are bedded here in the UK her musical sound appears more worked to an American pop vibe mostly owing we presume to the fact that she has collaborated in the past with the songwriters and producers to Christina Aguilera and Britney.

New track “Drink It Up!” is wholly evident of the aforementioned Americana pop vibe, right from its country pop acoustic guitar styled lead-in, the track complete follows through in an almost Taylor Swift like fashion, whilst Michaela demonstrates her versatility as a vocalist and takes the lead on the track with a positively glowing passion.

Basically as the title suggests the track is about going out and getting a bit one over the eight on the tipsy side. In the instance of this song, owing to fact of a parting of ways from a boyfriend, it is not so much the drowning of sorrows but more in the vein of see I can have fun without you.

Quite honestly is there any style of pop that Michaela can’t pull off!? As it appears her vocals will lend themselves amiably all ways within the pop genre, since the arrival of “Drink It Up!” is perfectly cementing of it. On the back of this, it is clear that Michaela has much too offer in the realm of new emerging pop and we would suggest you get the early heads-up on it now! - EQ Music Blog


"Michaela May"

t’s been a while since I’ve thrown caution to the wind and found myself caught up in the grip of a big power pop moment. Aha but emerging singer/songwriter Michaela May has penned out a few to her name already and is on course to make an indent on the popular music markets of the UK and US with her debut release “When you Say”.

The proof of talent that has seen Michaela work with the songwriters and producers to the Spice Girls, Britney and Christina Aguilera is all here to be heard through the big whoosh of driving pop on “When You Say”.

Michaela’s soaring vocals lead with ease as they elevate to roll out a put down message to a persistent suitor. That’s it gurl bellow it out in song!

Whilst there’s no denying you’d quite imagine someone like Kelly Clarkson to be behind a gigantesque power ballad of this magnitude, Michaela May might just be on her way to stealing a ray of Kelly’s sunshine for a bit and getting noticed for this track on her own merit, as it’s immense radio friendly presence implies that it has all the ingredients for a successful streak of playlist rotation. - EQ Music Blog
