Its beautifully grainy follow-up, Forever Turned Around, was a deeply melancholy affair, Julien Ehrlich\u2019s voice occasionally so thin when he lingered on words like \u201clonely\u201d that it sounded like he might be on the verge of tears. Even their covers album, <i>Candid<\/i>, released in that first pandemic summer, seemed ill at ease with itself at points, as though covering \u201cTake Me Home, Country Roads\u201d was too easy a serotonin rush. Joy that simple would only be worthwhile if Ehrlich also had an existential crisis while trying to rework David Byrne\u2019s theatrical delivery on \u201cStrange Overtones.\u201d Or, you know, literally covering Kelela. All that effort to fit the outside world into their own. It\u2019s hard work, sounding serene.<\/p>\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div>\n<p>            In that context \u201cReal Love,\u201d the first single from their forthcoming third LP <i>Spark<\/i>, makes it seem like Whitney tried so hard to bend their sound into new shapes that eventually it just sn<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ed. Gone are most of the trappings of early Whitney, the wistful nostalgia and delicate slide guitars. Instead, there\u2019s a compressed drum loop and metronomic bass groove, computerized strings in place of the horns, Ehrlich\u2019s voice crisp and clear at the top of the mix. It is unabashed pop music, almost playfully arranged, shiny and clean-edged. And for all that this is a breakup song, Ehrlich doesn\u2019t linger on the loneliness; in fact, he ends up repeating the word \u201clove\u201d over and over again. They\u2019re a long way from the crackle of their first two albums, but \u201cReal Love\u201d is bold and unexpected enough to suggest it\u2019ll be worth following Whitney into the unknown.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<style>\n<\/style>\n<div id=\"content_block-233892\" class=\"content_block paragraph embed triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left center_align\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"media_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"\">\n    <iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border-radius:12px\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/playlist\/0IWgt0h2ZxDNV4iVMQaELL?utm_source=generator\" width=\"100%\" height=\"380\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"content_block paragraph triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"author\">\n    <span><br \/>\n      By <span class=\"credit_name\">Alex Robert Ross<\/span><br \/>\n  <\/span><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
