A soft-rock ballad is probably the best way to describe the latest release from BirminghamÔÇÖs alt-rockers┬áEditors. In other words, itÔÇÖs incredibly dull. A strange choice of single from the band, the track results in not much more than a slight swaying of head and lowering of eyelids. The addition of a brass section gives the tune a slight glimpse of excitement but other than that, you canÔÇÖt help but picture a group of 40-something year old crooners covering their favourite power ballads from the nineties- sad times for Editors. However, fans of Nickelback and melancholic rock-songs that go nowhere will jump with joy.
