ickaimpAs life ramps up in the background, musing on music.
Mumford and Sons was something I caught by accident. Ashamedly, the one thing that really caught my attention was the fact that they have a BANJO.
UK group. Banjo. Kinda Folksy. Kinda Kick-butt. Fooking awesome, in the 'pound your foot, sing on the top of your voice' sort of way.
Little Lion Man (lyric video) is the one that caught my attention, it's their first single in the States. Once I got past the OMG Shiny Banjo! The Lyrics caught my attention as a total Conan song.
Chorus: But it was not your fault but mine, and it was your heart on the line.
I really f*cked it up this time, didn't I my dear?
The Cave (lyrics video) is my favourite. I have no idea why they're running around on scooters in the video, but I want one more than ever now.
Dare you not to belt out the chorus after the first time around because it's sheer defiance.
Chorus: And I will hold on hope, and I won't let you choke, on the noose around your neck.
And I'll find strength in pain, And I will change my ways, I'll know my name as it's called again
Winter Winds (lyrics video) is much mellower than the other two. This one catches my imagination because it's almost like an anti love song. It's almost backwards from what you'd expect someone to be singing about.
Chorus: And my head told my heart "Let love grow",
But my heart told my head "This time no, This time no"
And for completely random, they did a cover of 'Not in Nottingham from the Disney Robin Hood movie. Yeah, the one with the foxes.
Anyway, just an interesting group I figured I'd mention.
spook_me Ficcage: Highlander - Five times Methos was incorrectly named a Monster, and one time he possibly wasn't.
(other spook_me ficcage is done, just finishing up the art before posting)
