Don’t Tell Me by Blair Djuna: Review

Every year we eagerly wait for fresh dance floor songs to keep the party going and Blair Djuna has already made a fantastic contribution with ‘Don’t Tell Me’. From its toe-tapping intro to the foot-stomping climax, Australian singer/songwriter Blair Djuna’s fourth and latest single ‘Don’t Tell Me’ is the hottest single right now to blast through dance floor speakers.

‘Don’t Tell Me’ is a little funk lot of pop dance floor delight. Upbeat and electric, it will be the perfect energizer to feed your enthusiasm. Masterfully produced it lacks no twists and turns with the desire to keep listeners engaged. The bouncy, radio-friendly, ear-pleasing track is full of hooks to lure listeners and keep them captivated. Though is a modern pop song with familiar melodies, the intricacies lie in the musical arrangements and instrumentation driven by Blair’s desire to push the boundaries of established genres and create something new. A student of music Blair Djuna puts particular attention into writing meaningful lyrics and has immense lyrical mastery. His lyrical ideas range from romance to deep self-reflection and he tries to be meticulous about how to portray them through his lyrics.

Getting back to ‘Don’t Tell Me’, though a pop track intended to make you dance and enjoy a good vibe is not short of lyrical depth either. A sign of the artist’s creative maturity with all the aspects of the song from melodies to lyrics and production well thought out, it is an exhibition of the greatness of its creator who is set on a path of a successful musical journey.
