Living Live | Music, Video and Events

Is this apparently. To be fair it’s pretty darn good.

This is still a music video blog, I haven’t gone crazy and started talking about women’s underwear, yet. It’s been a while before I have spotted a new band about to hit the big time. It’s also been a while since a new artist has emerged from Iceland. I am talking about the band ‘FM Belfast‘. I don’t know what it is about Iceland that seems to make awesome bands. I cannot think of a single Icelandic artist that are not amazing, granted there are few.

Their song ‘Underwear’ sounds fresh and fine. With a lucky break on a TV ad or getting picked up by radio 1 I reckon it could be a big hit this summer. It’s got an awesome music video too. It seems to follow the vibes of small town kids that I am seeing a lot of recently. By that I mean alternative people stuck in boring small towns. Here are the lyrics and video to ‘Underwear’

We are counting down the days, until nothing

We are running down the street in our underwear, we are running up the hill – it’s over there

Cus nothing ever happens here.

Where everyone keeps off the grass, no littering, no loitering, no nothing, no nothing, no nothing

We are running down the street in our underwear, cus nothing ever happens here.

We come from a place where we count the days, until nothing

I have always taken the opinion that covering songs can be good and can be bad. It’s bad when you have just ran out of ideas or you are not creative enough to do your own thing well. But cover are good when you get creative. You can be just as creative in covering songs as you can with writing your own.

So we like to reward good covers here at living live, and here is a pretty awesome one. It’s not that creative, but it is bloody good.
