I don’t typically pay attention to American Idol. Back in the day, I thought it was awesome but I feel like it’s kind of a dead show and not really relevant anymore. That all changed when I heard Fritz Hager’s new single “Caroline” this morning. This song is amazing and the fact that Fritz is considered an American Idol star after being on season 20 gives me hope that maybe this show hasn’t lost the magic.
“Caroline” is calm and sweet but has a timeless feel to it. Fritz is a young kid but the vocals in this track feel very “old-soul-esque”. Right off the bat, I feel like the comparisons between Fritz and Michigander are clear and obvious. The song has a very singer-songwriter vibe but the indie-pop instrumentation and overall power in this track is staggering. The infectious chorus has one of those sounds that you’d swear you had heard before but it also has something fresh about it. Although every element of this track is well thought out and placed, Fritz’s vocals remain the star of the show.
