The Post That Is Better Late Than Never

It's been out for awhile, but I've only just discovered it. Mike Skinner (a.k.a. The Streets) is back with a new album. It's called Everything Is Borrowed and it's great, much better than his previous album, The Hardest Way To Make An Easy Living. Everything Is Borrowed's sound is similar to his first two albums, Original Pirate Material and A Grand Don't Come For Free. Brilliant.

Below is the final verse and chorus from "Heaven for the Weather", the second single off Everything Is Borrowed.

You tell the devil in no uncertain terms
You'll never be evil, you'll never be turned
What is this evil? And who decides this?
When left to devices some humans try shit
This is the reason we should all be tied up?
We're just normal people exploring our minds
We don't go around here putting poison in wine
But we enjoy what we like which is not always right
People are intricate, people aren't swines
Let's screw the rules up and rely on our minds
Sign on the line
You sign on the line
He clutches the wine and tips it in cyonide

I want to go to heaven for the weather
But hell for the company
I want to go to heaven for the weather
But hell seems like fun to me

I do like the lyrics, and the tune. It's rather catchy, in the way that "Fit But You Know It" was. If anyone wants the song, send me a message on MSN. I'd be more than happy to send you some of that. Perhaps get some of you lot into The Streets.

*I'll post a review of PES09 soon, maybe this weekend.
