We come running

We are happy.
We are free.
We are young.
The world is ours.
This could be our anthem.

15. Youngblood Hawke - We come running

 
...the sound, the sound, the sound when we come running.

C'mon

Would it be too much fun. if I posted their song with Panic! at the Disco? It would be the first time I repeated any singer in this blog, and maybe it's too early... but I have no clear rules for this, so I'll just do it!

And I'm seeing fun. live this Saturday, so expect more of them soon...

14. Panic! at the Disco ft. fun. - C'mon



May we stay lost on our way home?

Just give me a reason

I've been talking about September comebacks and I almost forgot to mention P!nk.
The truth about love was out a couple of weeks ago, and besides the lead single Blow me (one last kiss), which I'm sure we all have heard, and a bunch of other very P!nk-ish songs, it features the collaborations of Eminem, Lily Rose Cooper (yeah, that would be Lily Allen) and, wait for it... Nate Ruess!
My face was the same when I first read the name of the guy, but you instantly get who he is right after you listen to his first word in Just give me a reason, which is Fuckin' perfect.

(Oh, in case you're still wondering, Nate is the singer from fun.)

We're not broken just bent.

Ho hey

Some more great folk.
Happy song.
Nice video.
Enjoy!

10. The Lumineers - Ho hey



I don't know where I belong.
I don't know where I went wrong.
But I can write a song.

Settle down

After a wait that seemed to last forever, No Doubt are back, and what a comeback!
I've heard a lot of different opinions on this song: some say it's just the same music Gwen Stefani has been doing since she began her solo career; some others think that there's no doubt they're the No Doubt we once fell in love with.
I'm with the second group.

The fact is that when the song ends it's very hard not to hit play again.
It may be the reggae atmosphere, the addictive rhythm, the catchy lyrics or the urgent need to dance that we get when we listen to it.
Whatever it is, let's enjoy it!

Settle down will be included in their new album, Push and shove, that will be out on September 25.
I can't wait to listen to the rest of the songs in there. What about you?

8. No Doubt - Settle down



But you can see it my eyes, you can read on my lips, 
I'm trying to get a hold on this.
And I really mean it this time, and you know it's such a trip.
Don't get me started, I'm trying to get a hold on this.

Kill your heroes

Sail made AWOLNATION widely known, which was enough to make me want more (I'm an easy guy).
That led me to Megalithic Symphony, their debut album, most of which I must admit wasn't easy on my ears... at first.
I decided to give it a try anyway, and I started noticing that after each listen my feelings towards the record were slightly different, evolving from that initial what-the-hell-is-this to a hey-(I-just-met-you-and-this-is-crazy)-I-think-I-like-this.
While that internal process was taking place, Not your fault hit the radio stations, and suddenly everything changed: AWOLNATION were not a one-hit-wonder anymore, since that one was clearly their second hit.

A couple of weeks later, I was already sure that I liked Megalithic Symphony. A lot.
The album had a lot of potential, and I couldn't wait to see them perform it live. I had the change to do it last July in the Bilbao BBK Live 2012, where all my suspicions were confirmed: the gig was awesome, electrifying, fun, full of energy... a party from beginning to end.

AW-ESOME-OLNATION

6. AWOLNATION - Kill your heroes



I say ya kill your heroes and fly, fly, baby don't cry.

Runaways

Flamingo was okay, but Brandon Flowers is not The Killers.
It's been almost four years since Day & Age, but The Killers (all of them) are finally back!
Their new album, Battle Born, will be out on September 18, and after listening (over and over again) to its first single, Runaways, it's impossible not to be excited.

5. The Killers - Runaways



We can't wait 'til tomorrow.
