Betty Who gives "Human Touch" a human touch with stripped session featuring Jarryd James
The acoustic version of the Australian pop star’s new single “Human Touch” gives way for a haunting vocal from Who and fellow countryman Jarryd James.
The original single sees Who at home with a drop for a chorus, massive synth-drenched production, an all-round throwback to the eighties with a 2016 twist.
Taking all that away and leaving just the acoustic guitar may seem like a bold move for an artist whose back catalogue is composed of similar high octane potential hits, but it works - perhaps even more so than the official single.
"I write so many of my songs on guitar or piano - it seemed only fitting to showcase the way this song came to be,” Who explains. On teaming up with James she says, “It is a dream come true! The first time I heard his voice on the radio I knew I just had to sing with him. I am so honoured to share this performance with him.”
