The Darkness
|
Released: 22nd May 2006.
Their last release was a surprise hit considering many, myself included, wrote it off as their make or break single. Now, donning legwarmers and cycling shorts a la "Fame", they return with a pretty mad follow up track. Whilst the constant chants of "I love you, I love you" might get on your nerves after the third or fourth play, it manages to stand out as another classic track from Justin and the boys. High Top 20 I'd say.
The credibility of 2003's 'next big thing', The Darkness, has become somewhat stale with their second album "One Way Ticket To Hell And Back". This, their third single from the album, hits new lows, with another appalling, childish video and over-excitable wailing, making the original comparisons to Queen laughable. The Darkness, for me, have always been annoying, and even the critics who couldn't show enough support for them before are turning their backs on them now.
