The first song of theirs I cited back on day 322 was The Ghost Inside. The lyrics of this song fitted a science fiction theme about a young woman who travels to a distant planet to find her dream vacation. Sadly however, when she gets there, she finds the planet is not what she thought it would be. This second song of theirs also follows a similar science fiction narrative again involving people and spaceships. Another very interesting video visually to accompany a song which is also is quite interesting lyrically.

So over the next few days I am going to publish songs that were released in years that are currently empty in my Covid Island Disc collection. Up until today, there were no songs for 2010. In order to find a song that was published in 2010 I went to The magazine and looked up the top 50 songs for 2010. The magazine rated this song at number 9. On first listening, I wasn’t that impressed but the song did quickly grow on me and it has a great video to accompany the music.
