Johnluke – Pretty (2025)
Quickly earning a reputation for energetic, engaging, enthusiastic melodies that just make you want to grin every time you hear them, singer-songwriter Johnluke is one of the more intriguing Irish acts on the circuit. Since the release of his debut, ‘Already Been Told’, in 2024, he continues to enthral listeners with single after single, keeping his vibe fresh but building something substantial. The latest addition to Johnluke’s discography is the single ‘Pretty’.
Following the well-received singles ‘Green Eyes’ and ‘City Lovin’, Johnluke continues to find the line between Ed Sheeran and Mumford and Sons with ‘Pretty’. Immediately toe-tapping, you find your head bopping along from the outset – it’s like he injects a rush of sunlight into your day, making even the dullest Monday a little less mundane. The concoction of dynamic drums, bold beats, and a soaring guitar captures the core of a passionate melody; however, it is Johnluke’s vocals that bring even more oomph and raw passion to ‘Pretty’.
Upbeat and jovial, ‘Pretty’ is a danceable track bringing the best of contemporary pop to listeners across the globe. Melodically, it’s just a great song with a rhythmic groove and fun attitude – the ideal song on that life soundtrack where you’re about to fall in love. Lyrically, it’s on point as a creative expression of discovering natural beauty. Johnluke explains:
“’Pretty’ highlights a person’s beauty that strikes you from the very first moment you meet someone – a beauty they’re completely unaware of. It tells the story of going out on a limb to express just how pretty they are. At its heart, it’s about someone’s natural beauty with a heart of gold, and having that feeling of being in awe every time you’re with them.”
