Christina Perry: Jar of Hearts

This song is two years old. This review is a little late.

Good, we established that.

Christina Perry: Jar of Hearts
So the only thing that strikes me in this song, other than the biting and emotional lyrics, the mostly beautiful singing, and the impressive interpretive dancing in the music video, is the really annoying "who do you think you are?". You know what I'm talking about.

The piece shows off Christina's beautiful voice and her gorgeous pitch, but she falls a little when she sings the last lyric. Why does she choose to end the song with a let down? My only explanation is that she is trying to emulate the style "spoken word." It seems as if when she wrote it, she decided to make the ending of the song sound like she is speaking with pitch.

But other than the disappointing ending, the song has a beautiful and saddening message. How many of us feel that we can never get over a bad relationship but, after a while, we feel stronger because of our loss?

I would give this song 3 and a half stars.
