Zarooni, an emerging Emirati/British singer-songwriter known for his traditional Emirati melodies and Western pop-rock influences, releases his latest track, “GOT ME.” The song creates an eerie, atmospheric soundscape with its haunting guitar melodies and breathy vocals that immediately draw the listener into a mysterious, otherworldly narrative.
“GOT ME” opens with rippling guitar notes that carry a sense of unease, followed by Zarooni’s soft, whispered vocals. His voice floats with a spectral enigma over the immersive background. The haunting refrain, “Oh Lord, at least there is a tomorrow I’ll be okay, ’cause I know that you got me,” anchors the song with a divine sense of hope amid uncertainty. As the chorus swells, the beats drop, and slow, steady drums build up tension, adding to the macabre storytelling at the heart of the track.
Zarooni’s lyrics paint a chilling picture as he sings about unsettling encounters and creeping darkness, with lines like, “He’s come from a dark place, he’s not gonna stop / It’s got into my head, call the cops.” His high, breathy voice mesmerizes and captivates, leading listeners through a tale of inner turmoil and devilish companionship.
As the song progresses, the melodies become more animated, surging alongside the haunting story. By the time the track reaches its conclusion, the guitar melodies and thumping drums storm through the chill.
