How do you write a love song in 2014? It has to be as light and as desperate as handing your heart to another. It's got to feel playful, but not played out. It's a tall order, basically. Happily, rosy-cheeked newcomer Fabiana Palladino knows exactly what she's doing. "For You," her debut single on London label Double Denim is a clear-eyed, uncrowded look at the modern crush. I feel for you, she sings with an almost reflective quality to her voice. Produced in collaboration with FADER favorite Sampha, it's a shining example of 21st century pop.
