The new single “Latch on My Heart” from American-Argentinian singer Claire-Mae arrives as a grand, sweet, and warmly melodic release that feels timeless while remaining entirely its own. Now featured on the A-List Playlist, the song will also be played as a special POWERPLAY at 5:30 PM London UK time for the next 2 months, marking it as a standout moment for listeners drawn to classic songwriting and glowing production.
Built around a rich, vintage-inspired atmosphere, “Latch on My Heart” carries a soft 60s meets 70s sheen, complete with gentle flutes, glowing textures, and beautifully balanced chord progressions. There is a subtle echo of Nico-era Velvet Underground in the tone and mood, yet the track confidently inhabits its own world. Claire-Mae’s sweet, expressive vocal delivery gives the song its emotional center, especially in the tender refrain, “You are the one I love,” which lands with sincerity and warmth.
The production leans into a golden-era pop sensibility reminiscent of The Mamas and The Papas, when lush arrangements and heartfelt melodies defined the sound of a generation. That full, comforting sound feels newly relevant again here, making “Latch on My Heart” a touching and uplifting listen, particularly well suited to the reflective warmth of the Christmas season.
Claire-Mae is an American-Argentinian singer from Buenos Aires who chose to remain unidentified at the time of recording due to concurrent work on an EP release. As a result, the pseudonymous artist name Claire-Mae was adopted for this project, allowing the music itself to take center stage.
