Happiness

Song: Happiness
Artist: Sam Sparro
Album: Return to Paradise






It's been a long time, 2008 to be precise, since the release of Sam Sparro's self-titled debut album was released, but we're finally getting some new music from the Australian-born soul singer.  His sophomore album, "Return to Paradise" doesn't have a solid release date yet, but is set for sometime this year.  (Spring)

Sparro released a new tune, "The Shallow End" with an in-the-studio video at the end of January, and has just released what is rumored to be the first single off the new album... "Happiness."  It's a slick piece of future-soul that grabbed me right away.  It's not the slow burn of the stellar "Black & Gold," but a nicely effervescent tune with punchy piano, a nice beat, and Sparro's trademark smooth vocals.  Nice.

Enjoy.
