Song of the Day 27/10/2008

International One - Moonshine & Roses


Right, if it's not too late, watch this vid with the sound down. Make up the kind of tune you think they're singing in your head. Then turn up the volume. I bet you were way off, right? Probably somewhere in the ballpark of Black Grape, or the Stone Roses. It's what happened to me, anyway. But I was no less delighted when I heard what they were playing. This song makes me think of Muhammed Ali's "float like a butterfly" mantra, for the fact they look like they could bloody well sting like a bee but they choose to go for the pretty route. Fair play to 'em.

And it's got that bloke from Shameless in it. Any endorsement by that lot is good by me.
