The Knocks “R.O.Y.L.”
Keeping up with their apparent mission statement to keep the globe in a perpetual state of T.G.I.F. bliss one track at a time, the consistently reliable The Knocks pull out another slab of irresistible ear-candy with “R.O.Y.L.”, the latest single peeled from the production duo’s latest Magic EP and one that basically demands that some part of your body be busting a serious move from wherever you might be standing (or sitting) at the moment.
Melodically reminiscent of Womack & Womack’s “Teardrops” with nods to early Motown, post-disco Luther Vandross/ Change and the vintage Las Vegas soul of Cee-Lo, “R.O.Y.L.” is built around a beaming chorus that makes the promise “that you’ll remember tonight for the rest of your life”, and with the oft-repeated line arriving packaged in breathtaking Studio 54 euphoria that almost magically manages to embody all the joys that life can offer in musical form, you can’t help but believe that the evening at hand will be the best one ever.
