Okay first thing.
Philadelphia Grand Jury (I think they've probably been my new favourite band with Michael Franti and Spearhead for awhile now...) as I have said (I think?) have been nominated for an ARIA this year! :O In 'Breakthrough Artist' and its being held tomorrow! I think they won't win they are up against both Amy Meredith (I like them too) and Washington (and her too I like) so...
Because I’m sad that I can’t be there right now (yes they are playing at the Corner Hotel TONIGHT) I am spamming BUT they are in my town RIGHT NOW PLAYING LIVE AT THE CORNER HOTEL! Seriously right NOW. So. I'mma spam y’all with their music and other things. To make up for it. Somewhat.. Yes, the American accent in this Australian band which lives in the UK is very strong, apparently it’s easier to sing with an American accent, lazy world huh? ;) *love all you Americans friends of mine*
I really really love their new song 'Save Out Town' but they haven't got a free copy and the music site that I saw the link was broken. Oh well. One day I will buy it... I sat listening to the new video today (because the awesome old dude who was playing drums for them had to leave the band) with the girl. And really they (the two males) look like they should be on The IT Crowd or Flight of the Choncords or som'fin. :P
New 'Save Our Town' video and more. One dedicated to the newly nose-pierced
sunsweats :P Love ya.
Lyrics (I typed up so some could be a bit wrong):
Honestly, what you said to me
I cannot repeat, it doesn't work for me
In our hearts, or on the phone
You said a lot, so you’re not coming home
The future here, is still in doubt
The bank is shut, the shops are closing down
Suzie where you’ve been? It’s a mystery
I hope it’s close to me, I’m not the enemy
All the best things fall to pieces, there’s no point stopping now
So put your money down
and save our town x2
We’re so sick of risky business, and pulling something out
So put your money down
and save our town x2
So now it’s left, let’s make plans abreast
This lonely heart, buried inside his chest
It’s growing strong, and with a little help
He can promise you, that he will kick himself
Yeah here I am, right on queue
I tell myself, I don’t belong to you
Hey now don’t ya think, we’ve waited long enough
To say we’re not in luck, I think we’re still in luck
All the best things fall to pieces, there’s no point stopping now
So put your money down, and save our town x2
We’re so sick of risky business, and pulling something out
So put your money down, and save our town x2
I dream of funerals, I’m in a casket dead
I’ve got a big black book running through my head
I dream of funerals, I’m in a casket dead
It’s sunny outside, but there’s some darkness ahead
So, so long. So long.
All the best things fall to pieces, there’s no point stopping now
So put your money down, and save our town x2
We’re so sick of risky business, and pulling something out
So put your money down, and save our town x2
sunsweats for you? ;)
EDIT: THIS IS SO NOT FUNNY LJ. WHERE'D MY CLINTON AND LITERACY AND FIRST STICKY POST EVER AND MEME SECTIONS GO!??
