Dua Lipa has been compared to Lana Del Rey from the moment Be The One was dropped. Yes, while the similarities are apparent this does not mean that a throw over comparison is needed. With Be The One we can see that a brighter side to life is channeled and fueled by the candescent energy flowing through the songwriter's lyrical content. All the while paring those words over an uplifting beat that doesn't over power Dua Lipa's vocal ability. Don't suspect a breathless maiden waiting for another pitfall to crash beneath her feet. Dua cleverly adjusts certain thoughts towards a possible significant other, that simply she would never let them down. Dua being the one to open all the undiscovered spaces as the lights go out, seeking a fulfilling salvation within that significant another. If Lana is our dark damsel than Dua must be our savior heroine acting as our conscious.
Some may direct their name calling for a song as a love song or a ballad. However, what sets Dua Lipa apart from the crowded room of indie musicians is the overly serious tone that happens to lie under the subject being talked about. Call it dedication, passion or devotion that easily flows from Dua's lips. Whatever this newest musician decides to give the rest of us, more than likely the comparisons should wait at the door and allow Dua Lipa to play her set.
