Frank Joshua is a London-based songwriter who has been steadily releasing singles over the past few years. Days Like These, recorded between Exeter and London, continues that streak with a track built on simplicity and focus.
A four-on-the-floor kick gives the song its pulse, keeping it in forward motion. Guitar lines hover quietly in the background, while Joshua’s vocal sits clear in the center, carrying the weight of the track. His delivery stays direct, letting the words drive the mood. When he repeats the hook, “I turn gold on days like these,” it lands less as a performance line and more as a reminder to himself.
The arrangement never gets busy. It keeps space around the vocal, opening up just enough to create lift without pushing for climax. There’s a faintly funk-leaning groove in the rhythm, a light push underneath that keeps the track from drifting too soft. The balance between percussion and voice makes it feel grounded even as it leans into brightness.
Days Like These doesn’t overplay its hand. It’s a fun, sharply drawn song that captures a fleeting sense of optimism and leaves it intact.
