Sharl “3 Words”

Sharl’s “3 Words” is a fantastic rock tune that would really surprise you. From the soft and somber beginning to a cathartic, anthemic climax, the song takes listeners for an emotional roller coaster, but that’s the obvious takeaway from the song. There’s so much more going on in this sweet and mesmerizing tune that worth pondering upon.

Sharl is the type of vocalist who’s able to handle challenging passages effortlessly while offering a refreshing take on the twists that most artists would choose to avoid. She has nailed the piece so well, and this particular ability also gives her the power to do something unique that others wouldn’t dare to do. Her melodies are always full of surprises. They take you to places that are wild yet appealing.

On the other hand, her versatile vocal seems to bear multi-faceted potentials that are hinted so subtly. In the opening, we could hear a hint of folkloric charm in her soft and expressive monologue. It’s authentic and naturally flown into the music with a glance of melancholy. Then, Sharl’s vocal also seems to have the power to wield a heavy moody vibe. It was like a glimpse into what it could possibly be. The undertone of the song explores an intoxicating smoky side of the story without completely sinking into it.

The drastic contrast and the intricate built-up that links such vulnerability and intimacy with electrified rock-fueled climax is truly fascinating. “3 Words” almost gives listeners the impression of a musical drama. It’s dramatic, abstract, yet expressive. It seems that Sharl has just as much potentials in her songwriting as her vocal delivery. ]
