If North America's weather right now has you feeling a little flat, then fear not, as we've just the track to perk you up. Stepping aside from his previous outfit, Jodie Versus Everyone, London singer Jodie Abacus has the cure to what ails you with his latest single “I’ll Be That Friend”. From the track's onset, the good-feels flow thick and fast as Jodie’s soulful vocals glide with ease across a piano arrangement that seems to owe more than a little nod to Hall & Oates. All in all, however, the single is successful in retaining a sprightly, feel-good atmosphere without becoming saccharine, and it'll undoubtedly lift the spirits of all who listen to it.
