The Bottom Line
Infused with the best use of vocoder in top 10 pop since Cher's mega-smash "Believe," Hellogoodbye's "Here (In Your Arms)" is a refreshing piece of electro indie pop. It has taken some time for the song to be recognized by pop radio, but, with a boatload of catchy hooks, Hellogoodbye are a very promising band with more great songs where this came from.
Pros
* Sweet love lyric
* Fun use of the vocoder
* Irresistible pop melody
Cons
* Really just a wisp of a song
Description
* Sweet, gentle vocals awash in vocoder and echo
* Instantly catchy melody
* Pleasing blend of traditional instrumentation and electronic effects
Guide Review - Hellogoodbye - Here (In Your Arms)
There is a very appealing sweet, naive tone to the voice of Forrest Kline, lead vocalist of California-based indie pop band Hellogoodbye. When it becomes awash in Cher-style vocoder effects on the chorus, the listener can do little but smile. The sound lies somewhere between mainstream power pop and Daft Punk.
If there is a downside to "Here (In Your Arms)," it's that there really is very little of a song here. It's a very simple idea expanded out for almost 4 minutes. However, the sheer joyfulness of the sound and the goofy humor of the band's accompanying video are likely to win you over. Put this on your iPod, and you will be singing along in no time.
The pop radio success of "Here (In Your Arms)" is potentially a good sign for more attention to the richness of indie pop music. It's also a great introduction to a band that has much more where this came from.
