Singer-songwriter and producer Christian Alexander, originally from near Preston in the northwest of the UK and now based in London, has released his new single “You”—a track so compelling it may become your repeat listen well into 2026.
The song opens with driving, multi-layered guitar lines that immediately draw you in, paired with a steady kick that creates a chaotic yet grounding foundation. Alexander’s vocals enter with a calm, effortless synergy, carrying the listener through the track’s emotional arc.
With a striking resemblance to Fink’s pulsing “Looking Too Closely” and a climactic, Mumford & Sons-style explosion at the end, “You” showcases Alexander’s indie folk mastery.
His sound is precise and emotionally charged, conveying a palpable yearning for the person at the heart of the song almost immediately.
It’s a powerful effort from Alexander, as he navigates a dynamic, high-energy landscape built on acoustic foundations.
The repeating refrain, “I fall for you,” evokes a strong sense of romance that feels cinematic—like the perfect running montage in the final act of a love story.
