Tim: There are a lot of ways you can tell someone you love them. You can write them a poem. You can take some flowers to their door. You can stare into their eyes and whisper some soft sweet words.
Tom: Lasers. You could use lasers.
Tim: You could indeed. Or, if you’re a Swedish band, you may wish to espouse all those options and write a great big loud song.
Tim: And yes, it is big and loud. The music doesn’t really go with the gentle mood of the lyrics – for that, you’d want Enriqué Iglesias, or Celine Dion or someone. But it’s good loud – you know exactly what the guy’s saying, and why he’s saying it, and from a song like this that seems to be all that matters. It’s a good tune, and it doesn’t get old with repeated listens.
Tom: Really? ‘Cos it got old within the first listen for me. Two minutes in I thought ‘is this all it’s got?’ and skipped forward. It is, indeed, all it’s got, even with the screaming choir at the end.
Tim: Well, whatever you think, it’s definitely one you can sing out loud to when you’re cycling on your way to work early in the morning, should you ever find yourself in such a situation.
Tom: And I’m sure you have been doing.
Tim: Absolutely. I’m quite sure the neighbours hate me for it, but I don’t care. Mind you, nothing will ever quite beat yelling out RELEASE YOUR INNER GLOW.
