Just saw them perform this on TV's "Live from Abbey Road" and like it more and more.

Martha has a new one out ( great title: "I Know You're Married But I have Feelings Too")and I'd like to hear some of it here. Pretty Puhleese, RP

This song is really growing on me. Everytime its on I have to check and make sure I rated it.
I think Snow Patrol will be much more accepted by "adults" once all the Greys Anatomy stuff fades a little.

Without Martha Wainright, this song would be very dull and boring IMO.

Hardly a teen band. Check out their lyrics and music from the last 2 releases-- lots of adult subject matter and they really tell a story, for instance about addicts and recovery and many other subjects, or just write with lyricism and poetry about relationships, and the music is diverse in its pop influences and directions. These guys are seriously talented and for real, and will come out with something that will open a lot of eyes in the years to come. |

I agree, this song does grab your attention. Lunch must wait for a few minutes.

I saw them last summer and there were very few teens in the crowd. Looked mostly like the 30's crowd. Excellent concert, by the way. Global warming might kill them off sooner if not later |

Isn't "piercing quality" a contradiction in terms?? Or is it meant to be facetious? I guess I'm con" fused"? |

For Martha's part, they picked a girl out of the audience who said she could sing. And she did. So nice. SO NICE.
Hum... at Lollapalooza it was the singer from Silversun Pickups |

Surprising you haven't heard of the Wainwright family (Loudon's, Rufus, at al). Check 'em out some time.
That said, this isn't the best example I could think of. In fact, it's not very pleasant on the ear. Acceptable at best. |
