Every once in a while, a song drops that feels less like a track and more like a time portal. Today’s discovery? Cupid Spell with “Look Alike.” The vibe hits instantly—nostalgic, retro, and dripping with the kind of soft rock magic that screams 80s.
Think about what made 80s rock so iconic: shimmering guitar riffs, warm synth layers that stretch like neon lights across the night sky, and drum patterns that invite you to sway without even noticing. “Look Alike” captures all that energy but filters it through a softer, dreamlike lens.
Then there are the vocals—familiar in tone, almost hauntingly so. It’s the kind of voice that feels like flipping through an old photo album you forgot you had, each lyric a reminder of moments you can’t quite place but still recognize. Together with the steady guitars and understated rhythm section, it’s impossible not to move a little, even if it’s just a nod of the head.
Cupid Spell isn’t just dropping a song here. They’re offering a memory you didn’t know you missed. “Look Alike” feels like déjà vu wrapped in melody—pure retro escape.
