Little Me è una canzone del gruppo britannico Little Mix, pubblicato nel 2013 come secondo singolo da Salute, il loro secondo album in studio. E' stato scritto assieme Iain James e TMS, e prodotto da quest'ultimo. La canzone ha raggiunto la 14esima posizione nell'Official Singles Chart. Al suo interno c'è un sample della Pavane Gabriel Fauré.[1]

Accoglienza[modifica | modifica wikitesto]

Robert Copsey di Digital Spy criticato positivamente il brano, definendolo "spontaneo e confortante" e premiandolo con una valutazione di 4 stelle su 5.[2] In un'altra valutazione di 4 stelle, Melissa Redman di Renowded for Sound si è complimentata per le "eccezionali vocalità", le "armonie perfette" e il "testo maturo" della canzone.[3]

Isaac Mace-Tessler di Pop Scoop ha dedicato al brano una recensione molto positiva, dicendo "Little Me has a strong message of inspiration and liberation, all about the girls’ present selves telling their younger, little selves not to worry and to “speak up, shout out, be a bit prouder” and believe that they are already "beautiful, wonderful". The track thus follows and holds its own in the grand tradition of R&B empowerment ballads such as Sugababes' "Ugly", Destiny's Child's "Survivor" and Christina Aguilera's "Beautiful". The song's music video further underlines its heartfelt meaning: shot in earnest B&W, the girls emotively sing in an abandoned warehouse, interspersed with "real" girls and women talking about their hopes, dreams and insecurities".[4]
