Right guys just a little insight into perhaps my favourite musician ever. As political poet armed only with an acoustic guitar and incredible voice, I've been listening to Frank for about three years now. Ex lead singer of Hardcore band Million Dead, Frank Turner writes the most inspiring music. Whether writing about the excuse of a government we currently have or just waking up drunk from a party, Frank to me is one of the most brilliant and original musicians out there.
As a man who tours the UK relentless, and is currently touring in the states, I feel I can relate to his songs as a traveller.
Although this song isn't my favourite by him, it's had the most radio coverage and therefore seems to be his biggest hit to date. Also, as he talks about touring and travelling, I felt it would be most appropriate to share this song in a travelling blog. I would STRONGLY suggest checking him out.
EDIT - Had a lot of trouble with Youtube embedding so I removed the official video and replaced it with this one. Still the same song :) Enjoy
Album cover for Love, Ire and Song - an incredible album by the legend himself:
The blog of a 20 year old Language student, spending a year abroad studying at various Universities in Europe. “No one realizes how beautiful it is to travel until he comes home and rests his head on his old, familiar pillow.” – Lin Yutang
