A wonderfully upbeat, optimistic love song that speaks to the fun of a fresh relationship and the feeling of falling in love, ‘Man I Need’ follows in the footsteps of Dean’s feel-good discography.
The track, which will appear on Dean’s upcoming sophomore album ‘The Art of Loving’, is an anthem in claiming healthy love for yourself, reframing a pining love song through the lens of claiming what you know you deserve.
Echoing her signature style of neo-soul infused with clever hints of jazz and R&B, whilst seamlessly channeling the somewhat forward, empowering spirit of her “pop girlie” contemporaries, ‘Man I Need’ is a song that is impossible not to dance to.
Olivia Dean has a brilliant knack for capturing a magical feeling of girlhood in her songs and, despite being a love song, she maintains this great quality in this song. Flirtatious, charming and a song that belongs on a “getting ready for a night out” playlist, it’s an exciting and fresh feeling track from the artist.
