Hal
Play The Hits
Label: Release Date: 11/04/2005
Ah Hal**, you've caught us on a good day. The weather's warm, the spring's here and the sun's streaming through the windows of the DiS office. It truly is a time made for the latest Hal single.
Squeaky Beach Boys-esque vocals, bouyant guitar chords and a sugar sweet chorus merge together for a massive e-numbered hit of happy tuneage. Perhaps utterly inappropriate for when the sun disappears (ETA - an hour's time), but for the moment, 'Play The Hits' sums up a refreshing day of optimism for the summer ahead.
See you at the festivals, truly you are the new Thrills...
