it’s a cold monday morning.
the foggy memories of a booze fuelled xmas office party are beginning to make an unwelcome appearance, so what better way to start the day than by checking out the latest big budget pop hopeful for 2011 to help sooth over the onset of regret, and the seasonal necessity to indulge in festive related consumer kaos.
the original version of the debut single by morning parade, under the stars, is all widescreen guitars-n-electro pop drama with a nice combination of mournful regret and 3am club euphoria (a la hurts), a mood that is enhanced in the stripped back bleep infused dance floor filler version by get people.
given that there is a complete lack of those distress-o synth sounds that have dominated electro-pop for the last couple of years, i can’t deny that this makes for a welcome change and is not bad at all.
