By no means a new song but it just builds and builds. At time the voice is a bit too overpowering but in general it's a very solid song!

Bryan Devendorf of The National recommended this on the Q website and it's gorgeous. Not something you'd think a skin-beater like him would like!

Try this on for size instead, been listening to the for a while, they've done massive amounts of covers on different bands - very fond of them tbh

reminds me of this cover which i listen to alot...surprising how much the violin sounds like an electric guitar for the solo.

To be honest they could be playin N-Sync for all I care - I just love the sound of a string quartet playing recent music - puts a nice slant on things imo.

I think this is their best work tbh - and I'm not a massive U2 fan I have to admit it's just very relaxing

Well spotted Spirit

They named her for a storm
So how's she supposed to think about
How it's gonna feel in the morning"

Did your man hit the dog at the end. Animal crowd wont like that. That said the dog started it.

Yeah traces of Beck, soup dragons, and stones roses there. Very good song and like the video a lot

Really good tune, reminds me of early Badly Drawn Boy.

Great track, cheers for that!

My suggestion: Lone wolf - keep your eyes on the road

Caught him supporting Wild Beasts a while back and thought he was magnificent, this song is particularly outstanding, as is the video! I wrote a bit about him in my blog if anyone wants to know a bit more, it's definitely one of my favourite tracks of the year so far and the video definitely deserves a bigger audience than 4k views! Enjoy

I'm liking this tune - it's by Beach House and it's called '10 mile stereo'

I only know how to post the youtube link but do have a listen and see what you think - it's golden.
