100 Greatest Songs of the 2010’s #12 Haerts – Wings

Released : 2013

My god, pop when it hits that vein, straight and true, making your whole body tingle: Haerts are a duo from Munich, but Wings sounds like it came straight from a bar on Main Street, an anthem which rises and falls like the breeze on a warm spring night.

Like a blockbuster, singer Nina Fabi takes the blue-eyed soul par excellence of Maria Mckee and Sophie B. Hawkins and updates it for a different age, pouring gold and sugar over a record so huge it should be taught in schools. Pop is a drug.
