    New Song: Melanie Amaro – ‘Love Me Now’

    Written by Trent | Filed under Melanie Amaro
    Melanie Amaro Love Me Now TheLavaLizard

    Melanie Amaro’s ‘Love Me Now’ single cover.

    Melanie Amaro received mixed reviews for her debut single, ‘Don’t Fail Me Now’, so she has followed the record with ‘Love Me Now’, which ventures in a different direction. Yet, what do both tracks have in common? Amaro’s powerhouse vocals and a sense of urgency.

    “Love me now” is what Amaro belts over the Mariah Carey/Jermaine Dupri-styled production of ‘Love Me Now’. Clearly, she wants you to pay attention her music so you better tune in or else she might break into her West Indian accent and curse you out.

    Listen to Amaro’s ‘Love Me Now’ below:

    Amaro’s vocal on ‘Love Me Now’ is fantastic and the simplicity of the production would actually help it to work across multiple formats, including Urban radio. However, that simplicity also makes the song a bit boring so releasing it as a single could be risky. Perhaps the radio version will have a faster tempo to help it gain momentum. If not, it will be a very nice album cut or a B-side.

    Keys: love me now, melanie amaro, new song

    • larry

      loving this!! Simple and backing is nicee

    • @LoveMsAshley

      Boring. I really wish they would give her some good material. Some REAL upbeat R&B music, not this or that dance pop crap that is her first single

    • Cliff

      it’s okay, i think this would work for Mariah, if she did something like this

    • The Truth

      With a slight speed up of the tempo could be a decent radio single like Trent said. Other than that a bonus song or album track. Her voice is great through the song but the production is slightly underwhelming.

    • theman

      It’s a nice song, it’s very repetitive. But it does sound like a JD./B.Cox song. This should’ve been her first single. She should’ve just sped up the tempo a little bit and sent this to all of the important formats.

    • DOMOdotSCORE

      It’s an okay song, I can groove to it.

      But I was waiting for that moment where she would just go all the way off and send me to the sky on a natural high and make me wave my hand in the air but that moment never came.

    • Ugh

      I prefer Don’t Fail Me Now

    • Andy

      This sound at the begining like John West ‘Lovely’!!

    • MyCooL

      THE FUCK ,,,,,,,, did she go wrong?

    • suzi

      I LOVE this song – I love BOTH songs!
      I love Melanie Amaro’s voice no matter what she sings!!!
      cant wait for the CD!!!!

    • Dewone

      I love the background….she definitely deserved to win…but this won’t be her first hit. I still love the song though

    • Richard

      Seems like Adele had a more pepy first “Rolling in the Deep” and second very slow also. Melanies first would have been better if more simpler like Adele’s, but her second is just as good or better with “LOVE ME NOW”>

      I don’t agree with it being boring; however, I do agree she could use more material like Whitney style of music…R&B or a combination of both pop and R&B…
