Tune Tuesday

The Joy Formidable originated in North Wales and relocated to London. They also used to be under the band name of "Sidecar kisses" but split up for a short time, coming back together under the new name. I would like to describe them as a hundreds of golden leaves caught in a tornado; beautiful, fragile, but not quiet. My favorite sound so far is one of their newest ones "Cradle". The music video is also very interesting which you can watch below!




Lyrics...
I can see he says what he means
I can't say what he means when he says that
I'll pretend a pretty pretend
When all I wanna see is the end of this

I can see he says what he means
We'll deal him sticks and stones and apologies
I wish
Oh, I wish it was through

Scrape the skies
Get up off your knees
Just lift the marks
And new-found releases
I'll pretend a pretty pretend
When all I wanna see is the end of this

I wish
I wish
I wish the cobwebs would cover me
Cover me
Cover me

My vicious tongue
Cradles just one
My vicious tongue
Cradles just one

  3. oh no, I'm so happy that you really liked the band. That was the whole point of this. Yeah maybe 60% of the bands might not appeal to people but there might be that one that you just fall in love with and i'm glad!!

    Have fun listening to them!
