Could You Leave Me With A Scar?


Young Claire has been hankering for a BEST SONG EVER verdict for her favourite Triple J-winning artist all day, so here it is.

Or...is it? I don't know - it's almost a BEST SONG EVER, this is true. However, it might be more of a SECOND BEST SONG EVER.

Let's weigh up the facts here...

'Scar' Pros and Cons

Pros:

- Has the jauntiest piano vibe ever
- Sung with the aussiest accent this side of Paul Kelly
- Is that a trumpet we hear? If so - excellent!

Cons:

- Jamie Callum has ruined the piano for everyone
- Sounds exactly like the Dawson's Creek theme song
- And I mean exactly.

Hmmm...is it the BEST SONG EVER then? Probably the fact that I even have to ask that question means that it's not.

HOWEVER - On the EP there is the fantastically Oasis-vibed 'Dancing In The Snow' which is a ballad, and yes - it's the BEST SONG EVER! Also, Casuality name-checks me. So, all in all, it's the BEST SINGLE/EP THING EVER.
Comments:
Hey Crystal - Hannah here. I found the anonymous button! It sounds like I need to hear this song!

Oh, and I'm ashamed - Keane at only 4 dogs? And Snow Patrol at only 3?
 
Yeah, I reckon you'd like it!

And four dogs is pretty good I thought. As for Snow Patrol, I've just gone off them a bit. But they're still good.
 
I remembe hearing the "FIRST EVER RADIO PLAY" of this song back in June, driving from Melbourne to Canberra. She'd been hyped and it sounded so underwhelming. I cannot believe it is #1 in the charts this week.

Diana Ah Naid must be fuming.
 
It's number one? Woohoo! That is going to warrent another post...
