James has released two versions of the song, which include the Future Trips remix, as well as a raw and unplugged acoustic version that is sheer bliss. This expressive tune describes a relationship where one of the lovers is completely invested yet is blindsided by the other person’s abrupt dismissal, and its lyrics are moving and relatable.
“Like Love” was penned by James and produced by Natalia Malo and Luke Sego; moreover, Malo and Sego teamed up as the Future Trips producer team for the tune’s summertime remix.
Jeffery James’ piano-laden acoustic ballad “Like Love” allows his crisp, harking voice to shine, and it has a stirring vibe to it. His harking vocals are reminiscent of Lewis Capaldi meets James Arthur, and that ought to be taken as a compliment. He sings with soul and conviction and his new single garners two thumbs up. Well done.
He participated in the reality songwriting competition series Songland on NBC, where he performed his haunting song “We Can Be Heroes” for country star Martina McBride. The song was produced by veteran musician and producer, Ryan Tedder of OneRepublic.
