Dornik's New Song "Second Thoughts" Will Stop All Your Second-Guessing About His Amazing Voice

Listen to the premiere of Dornik's new single and stop trying to resist that voice.

Dornik's breakout single, "Something About You," was an instant hit, but it was also tempting to overlook: Another semi-anonymous, silky take on blending electronic instrumentals and smooth R&B vocals? It takes a lot of Michael Jackson comparisons to sell that combination, but it definitely sold. Pitchfork gave the song a Best New Music nod; the Guardian named Dornik the new band of the week last July; we put him in a piece about why British music is great; and he's signed to PMR, the label that hosts UK talents Jessie Ware and Jesse James.

His voice still sounds kinda like Michael Jackson—in the sense that it can reach a ball-tightening pitch—and on new track "Second Thoughts," it's overlayed atop resplendent, reclining synths. "Second Thoughts," which is premiering above, is the B-side to the recently released single "On My Mind." Expect to see a debut album sometime next year.
