Celeste - Stop This Flame (Official Video)

Celeste was crowned BBC Music's Sound of 2020 back at the beginning of January, about a month before 'Stop This Flame' was released. I see this song as being a vindication of that decision but it's also an exciting record generally: There is so much going on in there. From the jazz influenced vocal to the house feel of the piano riff, to the general sense of euphoria. It is the sound of a rising artist having her moment and enjoying every second of it, with the expectation of more moments to come, and I salute her for it.
