Damiano David continues to revolt the content of his debut album, which is still not officially announced, but of which the simple ‘Silverlines’ and ‘Born with a Broken Heart’ are already known. The latter was one of the best 2024 songs.
With the “broken heart” continues Damiano in ‘Next Summer’, the third single from the album. In this song, ideas flow less.
It is a classic pop-rock ballad, in which David is desperate for a person’s love. “Call me when he breaks your heart next summer, I will be here waiting for you,” says Måneskin’s leader. David is more vulnerable than ever when he sings “I see that I’m fine, but I’m lost and I’m afraid.”
Although the feeling of ‘Next Summer’ is sincere, its composition sounds too inspired by previous successes: you can almost sing over it ‘Until I Found You’ by Stephen Sanchez. The result is necessarily correct, but also predictable. ‘Next Summer’ leaves a taste too familiar and does not convey the freshness of the Sanchez classic, much less than a ‘Die with a Smile’, as far as ballads are concerned.
But David is not solely responsible for ‘Next Summer’ sounds unintention His career and that, in ‘Next Summer’, seek the optimal result, although this perfectionism takes personality along the way.
Damiano David has promoted ‘Next Summer’ with a very cinematographic video clip. We remind you that Damiano acts in Spain next September: on the 21st at the Sant Jordi Club of Barcelona, and 22 at the Movistar Arena in Madrid.
