POP PIECES: "Over Ice" Review
Jaime Deraz wears her heart on her (long) sleeves with “Over Ice,” an emotional indie-pop-leaning single set against the canvas of a cold New York City winter.
Deraz clings to the warmth she once felt, only to be met with cold indifference, begging for the romance to stay “on the rocks” just a little longer.
“Over Ice” uses winter as more than a setting. It becomes the emotional weather of the song: crisp, sharp, and unavoidable. Vocals laced with bitterness meet clean production that mirrors the surrounding scenery, leaving the listener with a lingering chill from start to finish.
