#75 Salem al Fakir, "It's Only You (Part II)"



Shouldn't tell you all I got inside but I just need to get it out
Let me say it if you don't mind
It's only you I think about

A reworked version of an album track, "It's Only You (Part II)" would, in a just world, bring Swedish singer-songwriter Salem al Fakir the sort of success "With Every Heartbeat" brought Robyn. With a new backing track inspired by the gentle side of dance but with piano and beautiful strings, the song has become completely enchanting, a delicate but not fully ballad love song that makes the world feel like a place worth celebrating. It's a song of pure undiluted quality, and the shortest way to sum it up is this: there's magic in it.

Find it on: It's Only You (Part II) (Single) (available in some iTunes stores under the name Salem; the original version is on This Is Who I Am)
