The Script


Is the British Invasion back again? There is such an influx of good British groups/singers hitting the American charts.
I cannot write about modern British groups without mentioning Coldplay. Were they beginning of the revival of the British Invasion? Has their success led to Snow Patrol and more recently hitting the charts Cascada and La Roux?
These groups, however good, are not the focus of this post. This post will focus on my more recent musical attraction: the Script.
In the past few weeks, their single “Breakeven” has finally hit the big time on the American charts. It is long overdue, having been released in October of 2008. How did we not know about these guys for so long?
I would highly recommend listening to their CD. The twist and turns through the song have left me wanting to listen to it more and more. “The Man Who Can’t Be Moved” was actually the first of their songs that I heard.
At work, we hear the same songs every day. For a little while, Charlotte and I would hear this song every Tuesday night. Shazam (the iPhone app) refused to identify it for the first few weeks. I am completely convinced that if it had identified that first night, then this post would have been written a month earlier.
Really though, guys. If anything, check out those two songs. You will enjoy them.
