Birkir Blær delivers his latest single “Go On” through an irresistibly energetic performance while delivering polished indie pop sounds. As an Icelandic musician who relocated to Sweden the 25-year-old artist constructs a self-assured piece which links R&B rhythms to catchy melodies.
The song begins with a sweet humming melody which leads into the introduction of funky basslines and rhythmic percussion and lively guitar riffs. The horn section brings uplifting atmosphere to the track which then shifts to a slow bridge section where rhythmic clapping and Blær’s musical performance become the focus of an intimate moment.
Since taking the Swedish Idol crown in 2021 Blær has successfully developed his position as an artist to follow. The song carries a meaningful empowering message through its catchy sound by encouraging both confidence and ignoring negative influences. The genuine feeling of determination emerges through his lines that describe pushing away negative influences.
During an Icelandic writing camp Blær created this song before contemporary production methods perfected it to display his talent for mixing musical styles without losing genuine emotional depth. The single serves as evidence that Birkir Blær’s musical journey has just started because he presents music that is both confident and infectious with refreshing optimism.
