So, that's going to be embarrassing (maybe?), but I had no idea this track is actually a cover of a Justin Bieber song. I heard the original and what Lola Coker did is just... beyond amazing.

The young American singer and multi-instrumentalist has crafted one of the most intimate blends of acoustic and r&b music I've heard in a while.

I really enjoyed reading what she put on her Spotify bio...

...my sound leans more towards r&b / soul and jazz music if I were to encompass it in a genre. Personally it's hard to for me to tell others how I sound, all I hope is that I sound good. I have heard people describe my voice as smooth a decent amount of times, so that may be so. I just know that my goal is to be a different and desired sound. I want my voice to make people feel, whether it mean happy, sad, reminiscent or hopefull

Lola, you surely made me feel. Today I fell in love with music again.
