Goodnight Gravity
FALLING UP

Producer(s): Aaron Sprinkle
Writer(s): Aaron Sprinkle
Label: BEC

The third Rock single off of Falling Up’s Captiva is succeeding a string of #1 hits (“Hotel Aquarium,” “Good Morning Planetarium”) – and accordingly, has large shoes to fill. “Goodnight Gravity” also stems from a band with six chart-toppers to date; to say that much is anticipated of this Sprinkle-written and -produced song is a sizable understatement. It takes several listens to pry through the laden vocal-concealing production, but the classic sing-along tune laying at its heart is worth the endeavor. Give it a spin – maybe two or three – and discover that Falling Up certainly breaks gravity with this one, and is heading for great heights.

Verdict: 4/5
