Thief A Wine | KES The Band | Trinidad Carnival 2013

This song made me smile because the lyrics ring true. This is so typical during carnival and especially in a crowded fete. This too can lead to difficulties and brawls if the 'thief' is caught by a jealous 'other companion'. That was just a by the way regarding the message of the lyrics.

Now this is KES the Band  and obviously his fans and interested parties will play this one to  hear what is in the offering. Most of the people hearing this song will say,"it's OK"! What does that mean for KES the band... mediocre or album filler? This is an album filler but one that is good for chipping down the road. This is not the type of song that would blow you away but then again this is KES!

Now we are in the position to take a closer look/listen to this one and form an opinion regarding what this one will do for Carnival 2013 - here we go!

Lyrics:
This song caters for wining lovers especially those who love to thief a wine. The lyrics are done is what I would like to refer as a 'passive resistance style' and can even be considered silly when one considers the premise...'thief a wine'.

Vocal Performance:
Kes Dieffenthaller is the lead singer of 'KES The Band'. One thing you can always rely on Kes for is a good vocal performance; he does not disappoint with this one.

Music/Production:
This song has a signature chipping down the road beat to the rhythm; can't you see yourself just giving way to  the mood of this festive time with the music of Kes driving you to sweet dancing ecstasy? This is the standard bearer for all chipping rhythms.

Replay Worthiness/Lasting Appeal:
Now here is the thing about this song - KES will get radio play regardless of the vibe this song brings to the table. That comes with being as popular as KES the band is today in the region. However, this is not a song that would 'mash up any fete'. In my view it is a decent Carnival song but not one that will have lasting appeal.
