Described as "Lykke Li meets TLC," half English half German lass Manou may well be the next Lorde. Just like her New Zealand counterpart, Manou is a fresh-faced 16-year-old, and her release "Sadie" is a glistening pop ditty sure to blow up the blogosphere.
Taking elements of the modern synth sound and fusing them with 90s pop influences, "Sadie" has a carefree vibe suiting a lazy Sunday afternoon. Produced by John Harrison (Amy Winehouse, Dido) and said to be taken from her debut LP, "Sadie" is blissful pop with a European flavor, topped off by Manou's beautiful, airy vocals.
