damon albarn - 'heavy seas of love'

Another new release today, this time for Damon Albarn. First listen for me and I wasn't too impressed with the start - it sounded, as someone else pointed out, like a jingle for a price-comparison advert but fortunately after the less than auspicious start the song gets good very quickly.

It reminds me a bit of Super Furry Animals or even that last Dexys album that I'm finally, finally warming to after a couple of years of thinking it's a bit crap. Back to the tune in question and it is never going to be the first track on a 'best of' album but as a happy springtime track it does the job perfectly. Radio-friendly with a catchy chorus, this will be a big hit for sure.
