Liam Payne and Rita Ora Nail Their 'Fifty Shades' Single 'For You': Listen
British singers Rita Ora and Liam Payne are two of the most popular stars churning out radio-ready pop these days, so when they get together for a project, it’s sure to be something worth listening to. The singers teamed up to launch the lead single from the third and final Fifty Shades film, and thankfully, they didn’t blow it.
“For You” is everything it needed to be in order to finish off a series that will perhaps be remembered more as a conduit for successful pop hits than for the sex that appeared on silver screens across the country. It’s production is big, but not too massive for Payne's limited vocal range to handle. The song reaches far enough to be interesting and noteworthy, but sonically, it’s not a true risk. “For You” is ambitious, but not dangerous, and while the music ends up shining brighter than even the two stars attached, it gets the job done and offers a satisfactory climax.
