Cherry Ghost – 4AM – 1st October
This song is bloody lovely. I genuinely can’t wait for an excuse to get on a train back home to Sheffield just so I can listen to this whilst the carriage gently rolls through the green hills of the Penines, the setting sun turning the sky a fierce orange as I ponder my current status as a bachelor. “There ain’t no hiding place on earth, that lonliness ain’t been there first” sings Simon Aldred, A wistful lyric that stands out in very well structured song. This is a song that will have you, your mother and your grandmother all tapping your toes in a communal unison of melodic niceness. I repeat, this song is bloody lovely.
4/5
