Tone Damli – Look Back

A very good, country-influenced pop song.

Tim: I don’t really have any introduction for this.

Tom: Fortunately, neither does she.

Tim: This is standard, really. And there’s not a whole lot to say about it. But I like it, so we’re featuring it.

Tom: It’s a very good, country-influenced pop song. (There’s a cry break or two in there.) We’ve said on several occasions that there’s nothing wrong with being formulaic, provided both the formula and the execution are decent – and in this case, they really are.

Tim: True. Some artistic people might spout some crap about how it’s all rubbish if you don’t express your true creativity, to which I say: bollocks. We’ve got a decent enough tune, a good voice (came second in Norwegian Idol 2005), some nice instruments and a triumphant energetic closing bit. All good, really.
