Another album that surprised me by feeling familiar even though I’m sure I haven’t heard it before. Other people have compared it to Coldplay, but I enjoyed it a lot more than that, both lyrically and musically. Another plus point was a track featuring Richard Hawley, another under-appreciated artist who I have only recently started listening to.
It was only when I got to almost the end of the album and the track ‘One day Like This’ that I finally remembered hearing it as part of the 2012 Olympics closing ceremony and what a wonderful moment of hope and optimism that was. I hope we can recapture that feeling again in my lifetime.
