Here is the official first single titled "Love" off of the forthcoming EP from Daughter (Elena Tonra) titled The Wild Youth EP to be released on November 21st . A few months ago I was enamored with the His Young Heart EP, and now I'm looking forward to hearing even more songs that stem from a vicious heartbreak. The gentle yet stirring build in "Love" is a thing of beauty, working up towards painful questions you'd never have the courage to ask someone who did you wrong.
If you have been anywhere around my ipod and me in the past year than you have heard this song. I am in love and felt like posting twice today just to share this song with you and because I wanted to watch the awesome animated video that goes with it too. "Girls" is from Nizlopi's first album called "Half these songs are about you" and was one of those songs that I latched onto which is evident because he makes an appearance on at least half of my itunes playlist from last year. I also love how his cute British accent comes through in his songs. He is also equipped with some great lyrics.
I'm smothered in
Memories, and you are too
What is given back
We can't unglue
All this sticks to me
Some days sweet like honey
Some days tart like marmite
Sticks to your heart
Sweet doll
Straight to your heart
Gotta love and forgive
Or you can't breathe
Nizlopi's myspace page says that he is on sabatical until January 2010 so I am starting to get excited to see what new stuff he has got. Some of my other favorites include: Extraordinary, Helen, JCB song, and Wash Away. Absolutely worth checking out if you are in the mood for some good raw music. You can tell that he is just beginning but that he has lots of potential plus he is a cute Brit, so you can't go wrong. Enjoy!
