Earlier this year, singer-songwriter Melanie Wehbe collaborated with fellow artist Paul Rey on the track "Arrows." The song was a slow tempo-ed but large-sounding ballad with a gradual buildup and powerful orchestral stings. Now Wehbe is back with her own single: "In Your Eyes." In this latest track, the musician takes all the balladry and scale from "Arrows" and pairs it with a livelier, more upbeat groove. "In Your Eyes" tells the story of a toxic relationship that goes back and forth between staying together and splitting apart. It is an emphatic track. The lyrics are emotionally resounding, and the rhythm is undeniable. Wehbe crafts a song that is perfect for nearly any occasion; whether jogging along to at the gym or screaming with in the car when you relate, "In Your Eyes" is a ballad bound to resonate.
"In Your Eyes" is a power ballad through and through. From Wehbe's performance to the production, the track is a sonic triumph. The reverbed vocals on the bridge and its jittering synth-heavy base straight from the '80s all work together to create such grandness, only furthered by the massive scale of the vocals. Wehbe's vocals are dynamic, both from a technical and emotional level. She goes from high highs to low lows, and you feel every word. When Wehbe belts "I already see that you're leaving" in the chorus, she conveys such sadness while highlighting her vocal prowess. "In Your Eyes" is an epic, anthemic ballad showcasing Melanie Wehbe's star power as a singer and songwriter.
