Turin Brakes - Over And Over

Like a pleasant amble in the park on a summer's day, Turin Brakes' song passes by with a cheery singalong tune. The first verse sums up their carefree approach perfectly; "It's a lovely day to lose your way". Like much of their music, however, a closer inspection reveals a few hints of discontent just beneath the surface, like the "nine to five, slowly eating me alive". We're all with you there.

It's a mystery as to why the duo haven't made a bigger impact chart-wise, given the quality of much of their melodic material. After the 2003 success of Pain Killer they seemed groomed for the big time, but maybe, because of the lolling nature of their music, people didn't quite go for it.

Whatever happens, if you miss this single your life won't be a whole lot worse, but if you choose to go for that stroll you'll find the sun is shining and the birds are singing on this piece of radio friendly pop. The boys deserve better - let's hope they get it.
