King Charles – ‘Love Blood’

It is impossible to dislike the wonderfully moustached, modern-day-Shakespeare, King Charles. His songs are fuelled with energy and character; ‘Love Blood’ is no different. Listen to ‘Bam Bam’ and ‘Love Lust’ to get a feel for the eccentric vibe that he emits, it’s clear to see ‘Love Blood’ follows this distinctive trait. The track begins with a heavy modern riff and the female backing singers contribute to a ’50s melodious sound that is reminiscent of the Grease pink ladies. I confess it’s a simple concept; ‘I’ve got love in my blood and I got you on my brain’, lyrically, is not poetically overwhelming, but they are immediately rewarding, which is all part of the enthrallment.
