Stream: Ximena Sariñana - "Wrong Miracle"


Here it is: our first peek at Ximena Sariñana's upcoming English-language album. The song, "Wrong Miracle," is a basic, jaunty little pop/rock ditty. The cynical observer would comment that this sounds a bit too much like her one-time collaborator Jason Mraz, or whatever faceless Canadian-flavor-of-the-month is currently on top of VH1's Top 20 Countdown (and it always seems to be some Canadian, am I right?). And yes, it is pretty harmless, but it's not exactly bland or gag-worthy either. And really, that's a big enough relief in itself. We don't know what else to expect from the upcoming record, but if Ximena can breakthrough with even a minor pop/rock classic akin to Gemma Hayes' Night on My Side or Metric's Fantasies, then we can all breathe a collective sigh of relief. Oh, and if this is any indicator that this could totally fit on the radio, my Mom really likes this song. So she's got that going for her...
