Yasmin // Suicide

Poor Yasmin can’t catch a break with all these leaks. With her album sampler and “Holding On” having leaked on top of a whole bunch of songs she’s performed, it seems that we’ve already heard half of the Scottish singer’s upcoming debut album before its release this summer.

And to make things worse I just came across another leaked track which has been floating about the internet for a few weeks. I suspect this is from the same acoustic session she performed “American Wedding” and “5 Minutes” at, so hopefully the fact that this isn’t the studio version should lesson the blow. Nevertheless, we’re still getting to hear another great song from Yasmin, who’s debut album should be a corker from what we’ve heard so far.

This acoustic led track is more along the lines of “5 Minutes” than the rest of Yasmin’s work. It’s a catchy mid-tempo with an emotional chorus and hard hitting lyrics, in which Yasmin contemplates suicide just so she can have someone by her side. There’s plenty of medical metaphors in there, making the track quite similar to the beautiful “999” lyrically. Yasmin’s tone is gorgeous throughout the track, as she lets us see an altogether more delicate side to her personality on “Suicide”.
