Sink Or Swim

I was first introduced to Save Your Breath at Newcastle Uni. It was the 20th May 2010 and I'd dragged my sister along with me to see The Rocket Summer. Save Your Breath were supporting and with catchy songs and lots of energy, it was hard not to feel enthusiastic about their music, I fell in love with them instantly.

Recently the band have tweeted links to free downloads for “Stay Young” and “Sink Or Swim”, so obviously I downloaded both! (You can download them here)

As the intro starts, the song sounds like a typical Blink-182 song… and then the vocals kick in. Sink or Swim has lyrics that most people will be able to relate to and you can’t help but sing along. Stay young will always be my favourite as it holds some pretty good memories,  but for now I’m loving Sink Or Swim.

Sunshine

"Stop wishing for the sunshine,
Start living in the rain."

Following my previous post about Kids In Glass Houses, I wanted to share this with you all.
I was introduced to this song when I first saw the band in May and it came at a time in my life when I really needed to hear it.
I hope it can mean as much to you as it means to me :)

You can pick up their album on Amazon.co.uk for £4.99!

The Best Is Yet To Come

When I first heard that Kids In Glass Houses would be releasing "The Best Is Yet To Come" as their next single, I thought they were crazy! Of the thirteen songs on their second album, Dirt, this isn't the one I would have picked...especially with such strong contenders on the album; Sunshine, The Morning Afterlife, For Better Or Hearse and Lilli Rose to name but a few.

However, after blasting it a few times and perving on both Aled Phillips and Andrew Shay in the video, I have to admit how wrong I was. The Best Is Yet To Come is an amazing song and I can't wait to hear it live when I see the band on tour again in November. Well done boys, yet another single you can be proud of! (Sunshine will always be my favourite though, sorry!)
