Der Titel stammt aus ihrem neuen Langspieler "No One Can Ever Know", dessen physischer Release hierzulande auf den 17. Februar datiert ist. Vorab könnt ihr euch das Album »hier im Komplett-Stream zu Gemüte führen. Zuletzt visualisierte das Trio seinen Song "Sick" in stilvoller Schwarz-Weiß-Ästhetik ( motor.de berichtete ).

Now normally I’m not a fan of writing reviews about singles, but lately several cool songs have come across my desk. Although the majority of them can be classified as alternative and indie music, there is a cool New York hard rock band worth mentioning. I hope you enjoy my random selection Fun - We Are Young From the moment I first heard “We Are Young” I knew I listened to one of the best songs of 2012. Yes, only a few weeks into the new year I discovered a great song worthy to be considered one of my favorites ...

This song came out a couple years back, but is about to get a lot more popular. This is the trailer song to the most …

Snow Patrol played a trio of dates at the Odyssey Arena in Belfast last week.

There are so many great songs on the new album from Snow Patrol (website), Fallen Empires. The band has already released four singles from the album, starting with the great “Called Out Into The Dark”, which is finally getting some airplay in the US. “This Isn’t Everything You Are” was the second track. Right now, [...]

While working on a post for Snow Patrol‘s latest singles, “In The End” and my favorite new song from them, “New York”, I realized I never posted Leona Lewis‘ amazing cover of “Run”.

Florence Welch has always kept things classy, and Florence + the Machine's new video for "Lover to Lover," off last year's Ceremonials doesn't pull any fancy-schmancy punches, either: It features nothing but Florence, that jaw-dropping voice, a harp, a guitar, a piano, and some epic Broadway stage lighting. The minimalism is impressive considering it was directed by Arni and Kinski, the duo responsible for that crazy, naked Sigur Rós video , but really impressive considering how far they've come since that crazy, depressing Snow Patrol video .

An exclusive video of *Snow Patrol* (http://www.snowpatrol.com/#%21official) hanging out on one of their recent day offs can be seen in the replies.
