Skylar Grey – Dance Without You

Wonderful use of samples and excellent manipulation of sonic elements make this track unique. Skylar’s voice is the reason I’ve liked the very top 40 collaborations (e.g., Love the Way You Lie by Eminem) she’s done in the past. This track is taken from her forthcoming album, “Invinsible”.
