Never been a big fan of the Preachers but they do have some really good songs now and then. The best song of theirs by my reckoning is this wonderful slice of power pop from 2007. With the added attraction of Nina Persson from the Cardigans sharing the vocals the first time I heard it on the radio I almost had to pull over. The Manic Street preachers releasing a perfect 45 inch single. That's what this song reminded me of. Those 45s tucked away in boxes waiting to be played when I find room to restore my records to their rightful place in the home. might have to wait until the kids get a little older. Although I picked up an old record player and put it in my son's room and he goes mad playing all my old unwanted singles. It does mean that some rubbish was coming from his room so I had to go out and buy some copies of old eighties stuff. God knows how it will affect his taste in music.
As I was saying, not a huge fan of the preachers but there is something about them. Maybe it's the Welsh connection and my family originally coming from there. Maybe it's because just when you get sick of them they throw up another great single. i look forward to the next one.
