There are two things that save this track from falling into typical introspective folk fodder – the high spun harmony of Emmy the Great on backing vocals and the trip and cut of the music three-quarters of the way through the track.
Trumpets and lush instrumentation are employed without over-sentimentalising the song but, in parts, the drum line is just too reminiscent of Oasis’s ‘Live Forever’. Warmsley may be another great white hope, but lyrically there are no great surprises from his notebook of musing. His lackadaisical vocal delivery is reminiscent of a young Graham Coxon, too.
With a debut album due out in early October, there’s still plenty of potential evident here. But this isn’t the grand opening I’d expected.

Jeremy Warmsley, Frànçois, Rose Kemp at Croft, Bristol, Avon, Tue 18 Apr
gon on, give us a snare rush
i liked the first recording (on exercise 1) but not heard this yet, it doesn't sound as cool.
I'll still buy the labum though, because I think j_wo is great
i thought the original version was wack
but this is goood.
I've been asked to support him in Manchester
I'm grinning about that, as you might imagine.
I love this song.
Bought it today. Saw him play it at the Puregroove instore - nearly came in instinctively on a harmony part by accident because it go so ingrained when we practiced it for the session thing.
In a just world, this would be in the charts and shit.
GO TEAM WARMSLEY
5's harsh
I love this.
I think that's about right.
He isn't THAT great. I do like the original version though.
I haven't heard this version
but I'll definitely buy it if it's out. I like the boy Warmsley. And I like his shirts.
hi seymour!
remember last summer?
yup this is ace.
5's pretty harsh.
i've always preffered his bleepier laptoppy recordings though. the boy's got a knack for bedroom production like no other.. mmmmmm lovely reverb..
OASIS COMPARISON?!
*waaaaaaaaaaagh*
I saw Jeremy
In his rubbish band at Churchill College in Cambridge. It's hard to believe he's actually any good at all these days.
