Tom Collins’ latest single is another one of his warm, sweet, and exquisitely balanced pieces of acoustic, well-meaning pop. ‘Care in The World’ is a song that discusses poverty in our societies with the delicate hand of a man, one with his guitar, and the stormy presence of a truly passionate soul.
Based in Bagillt, a town in Northern Wales, Tom Collins is a singer and songwriter whose youthful deliveries go a long way on his latest single ‘Care in The World’. His passionate singing fires up the minimal arrangement of guitar and strings, making this short piece an immediate showstopper the moment he begins to unleash his voice with some of the heartiest yeahs we have had the pleasure of hearing all year long.
Since having featured on The Voice UK in 2022 Collins has enjoyed a busy professional career, sharing stages with artists such as The View, RATS, and Shambolics. ‘Care in The World’ could not be much simpler, and equally is very complex. The song’s unorthodox structure allows it to be a ballad of sorts. Collins’s acoustic sounds delightfully round and warm, and his fingers on the instrument are light and nimble. His singing is heartful and his passions rings out with his yelps, wrapped snugly in the song’s grandiose string arrangement that’s balanced enough as not to drown the song’s delicate, minimal arrangement. The results are a song finely balanced between its stormy core, and gentle, soft exterior.
‘Care in The World’ is a wonderful showcase of Collins’s array of talents. As a songwriter, a singer, and an arranger, Collins’s latest single is a testament to his exquisite sensibilities and lyrical prowess.
