My voice still isn't back yet, so I'll do another review before my cover.

The XX - Infinity


My father always has me listen to music he discovers.
Either the song reminds him of me, he wants me to cover it, or he just likes the song and wants me to hear it.
Lately, he's been listening to this radio station that likes to talk about music that isn't well-known. The song I'm about to post is by one of the bands mentioned.
My father had me listen to it because the artists are somewhat near my age, and he thought it would interest me.
I personally love the vocals.
I don't have much else to say, I just needed to update this.
Let me know what you all think.

The lyrics weren't particularly impressive...

After all the time
After you
Had you seen me with someone new
Hanging so high for your return
But the stillness is a burn


Had I seen it in your eyes
There'd have been no try after try
Your leaving had no goodbye
Had I just seen one in your eyes

I can't give it up
To someone elses touch
Because I care too much

Could you tell
I was left lost and lonely
Could you tell
Things ain't worked out my way

Wish the best for you
Wish the best for me
Wished for infinity
If that ain't me

Give it up
I can't give it up

I can't give it up
To someone elses touch
Because I care too much

Give it up
I can't give it up


...Alright, so maybe the lyrics aren't impressive at all. I do like that they're expressed with the two vocalists, as opposed to one. Sometimes the actual lyrics can be overlooked when the music itself is a good listen.
The relaxing feel of the music, the slow tempo, the laid-back vocals, were enough for me to over-look the writing.
...On top of the fact that my daddy likes the song. I love my daddy. [=

Let me know what you guys think. ;P
