A quaint and slightly quirky indie folk tune, Mark Rosal’s emotional and flowery ‘You Need a Woman’ is a by the numbers loveable tune to sing along to. The jangling acoustic melody, backed by a few air instruments, and a deeply emotive vocal performance makes for a surprisingly energised and high octane folk tune. The way he starts to sing with increasing force and fervour, ‘you need a woman!’ has you jumping along with him. But it’s in the verse, as he starts narrating a life’s journey and characteristics to you that the real heart and soul of the song is.
Not your run of the mill folk performance, but definitely well grounded and crafted in the veneer of one, ‘You Need a Woman’ is a fiery acoustic track that’s fun to jam out to.
