Demi Lovato- Cool For The Summer Single Review - MusicSnake
Dropping her new song “Cool For The Summer” yesterday, Demi Lovato’s latest single soared up charts all over the world, hitting #1 in Brazil in less than an hour. Demi’s social media feed was full of sunshine, palm tree and bikini emojis, and fans went berserk over the release. So does it live up to all the hype? Well…not really.
Opening with a fun keyboard rift, you are transported to the summer months.

Sure songs about summertime and sex sell, and Lovato has created a tune that we will dance to for months, but there is no sense of depth or talent to the tune. The reason we love Demi is because she is bold and daring, yet she is also raw and honest. We are used to her recounting personal experiences in her songs, and hearing about the light and shade of every situation within her voice. “Cool For The Summer” doesn’t give us these facets of Lovato, and because of that it can appear cliché.
There’s no denying the success of “Cool For The Summer,” but sadly the quality just isn’t there. Lovato sounds like every other pop artist in this tune, and while credit has to be given for her dedication in its delivery (right down to her whispering, “Shhhh, Don’t tell your mother.”), it’s good for the dance floor and little else. Compared to “Heart Attack” and “Really Don’t Care,” this is merely an album filler. I’d recommend going back into her discography and partying it up to some of her other tunes; there you’ll truly be able to embrace the extraordinary quality of her
