Bong Mines Entertainment (15 KP) rated Parachute - Single by Jaclyn Manfredi in Music

Jun 18, 2019

Jaclyn Manfredi is a singer-songwriter from Long Island, New York. Not too long ago, she released a grungy contemporary R&B tune, entitled, “Parachute”.

“We’re five thousand feet in the air. But it feels like you couldn’t care. I can see right through your blank stare. And I know it’s time for me to prepare.” – lyrics

‘Parachute’ tells an interesting tale of a young woman who feels cold whenever she’s by her significant other’s side.

Every day, thoughts about their relationship being a mistake filter into her mind, and her frustration about her partner’s missteps has multiply sky high.

Later, she admits that they’re running out of time, and the air in their relationship is running thin.

‘Parachute’ contains a relatable storyline, ear-comforting vocals, and groovy instrumentation flavored with retro-soul, R&B, and funk elements.

“‘Parachute’ is a song about a toxic relationship that you can’t wait to get out of and the feeling of having a weight lifted off your shoulders.” – Jaclyn Manfredi

At the age of seventeen, Jaclyn Manfredi performed at the acclaimed Apollo Theatre and Carnegie Hall in New York City. Shortly afterward, she won the IMTA national singing talent competition in 2017.

Her musical influences include Amy Winehouse, Alicia Keys, and the contemporary funk of Bruno Mars.

Book Rating

I tried so hard! I made it to 63%. The heroine in this book just was not working for me. She wasn't easy to relate to and all she did was wallow in self pity. She wasn't a strong character at all. She was whiny and constantly wallowing in self pity. She kept putting her boyfriend who shot up the school on a freaking pedestal.

SHE HAS THE NERVE TO BE SURPRISED THAT ON HER FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL THAT PEOPLE CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY SHE LOVES HIM AND MOURNS HIM. TRYING TO KEEP AN OPEN MIND."
