This week's video is Running by British singer Jessie Ware.
Jessie (real name Jessica Lola Ware) started singing at school but after she left she worked as a journalist until she was asked to do backing vocals for her friend singer Jack Penate. She became his backing singer and made contacts which led to her being signed by record label PMR. Jessie released her debut solo single Strangest Feeling on vinyl in 2011 and the following year she released Running, which was the first single from Devotion (the first release in 2012). Wildest Moments (the third single from Devotion) has been Jessie's most successful single to date. Devotion was re-released as Devotion- The Gold Edition in April last year.
I first heard of Jessie when I saw the video for If You're Never Gonna Move (the album's second single) on one of the music channels last year. Apparently it was originally called 110% but had to be changed due to legal issues. She doesn't seem to have too much promotion on TV but you can find her videos on YouTube. :)
I got Devotion: The Gold Edition for Christmas and really like
it. Running is one of my favourite songs on the album. :)
Update 7/7/21: The music video for Running has been removed. I don't know why since I think it was an official video! :( So here is the audio:
