Reverend And The Makers - He Said He Loved Me

Jon McClure, previously best known as one of Alex Turner's best mates, has suddenly been making a bit of a name for himself. Previous single Heavyweight Champion Of The World was a superior indie-pop anthem, and this single looks set to be absolutely huge.

McClure's increasingly hilarious interviews usually feature him saying how much of a genius he is, so it's a good job that the music stands up. He Said He Loved Me is an infectious male/female duet which tells the tale of a heartbroken teenager who's been dumped by an older man.

Observational lyrics sung in a regional accent ("he got off with Keeley, she thinks she's special" spits out the chorus) may be all the rage, but the Reverend adds something very fresh to the mix. Some may find it irritating, but most people will be flocking to worship at this particular Reverend's pulpit.
