Florrie – Little White Lies

“That’s a lovely track.”

Tom: CB sends this in, and praises Florrie highly.

Tim: Ooh, and rightly so – that’s a lovely track.

Tom: First of all: I did not expect live drums — or, at least, the appearance of live drums — in the video. I just assumed it was a drum-and-bassish sampler.

Tim: I was all about to disagree and cynically point out that we never actually saw her hit them, but then the band appeared, and then we did see her hit them, so feel free to ignore this sentence.

Tim: I didn’t expect much from this song in the first verse, but I realised when it ended that my attention had been with it throughout. That’s rare: I’ve got a short enough attention span that normally I drift off at least once during a song. This kept me listening: it’s both a good track, and an interesting track.

I’m not quite sure about the rise-into-chaos outro, but it certainly beats a fade to black. I like this a lot.

Tom: I have no problem with it – like you said, it’s an interesting track and partly because it has unusual elements like that, which are unusual in a good way. I’ve nothing but praise for this.
