Smile at Christmas by Eva No: Review
Swedish musician Eva Nordell who goes by the stage name Eva No emerged in 2019 with the single โRun with the Angels.โ Her music career took the forefront in her late teens as a member of a band located in รrnskรถldsvik, which is located in the northern part of Sweden, and her current home base is in Stockholm. The holiday song โSmile at Christmasโ was written by Eva Nordell and produced by Martin Klaman. It incorporates a bright melody with some subtle piano pieces and the singerโs allure to bring that โfeel goodโ essence to the spotlight.
The music of the track โSmile at Christmasโ is enchanting. Upon hearing the track, a wave of melancholy arriving in the form of pop-rock took hold of me. The chorus section in particular has this gloomy ode that blends beautifully with the harmonies and instrumentation. A remarkable synergy exists between the ballad-style piano sequences and once the guitar enters the mix the uplifting melodic presence only gets better with each note.
Thereโs something unique about hearing holiday numbers. Everyone has their own take on the theme, and I was glad to hear Eva Noโs melodic contribution to โSmile at Christmas.โ The musician has a charming voice that sort of leans on the baritone side, but at the same time has a flow that fits perfectly to some treble-heavy instrumentation. The track incorporates some elements of loneliness through poetry but holds onto the essence of Christmas.
