Sparks (Cover Drive Song)
"Sparks" is the third single recorded by Barbados-based pop group Cover Drive. The song was released on 29 April 2012 as a digital download in the United Kingdom, taken from their debut album ''Bajan Style''. Music video A music video to accompany the release of "Sparks" was first released on YouTube on 16 March 2012 at a total length of three minutes and three seconds. Critical reception Lewis Corner of ''Digital Spy'' gave the song a positive review stating: "It's just another night, the boys are getting hype/ But baby in my head, I'm there with you instead," T-Ray bluntly confesses over a clap-happy beat and smooth synths, before Amanda on a wibbly-lipped chorus that will grab your ears and refuse to let go. With a hook more seductive than a heartthrob vampire, we suspect Cover Drive will have the public under their charms once again. .
