Starsailor This Time/ Push The Button (EMI, 2006)
The jury is still out on Starsailor. For me they are utterly rooted in the Britpop era. That's short hand for 'they are a somewhat dated entity' in the same way that the eighties production (cough) values dated so many of that era's songs.
Still - there are definite elements of worthiness about Starsailor and this song in particular. The poppy approach, the vocals, and the lyrics are all rating on the positive-o-metre.
Hidden gem: A live run through of Push The Button is pleasant but hardly a gem.
Music is the wine that fills the cup of silence - ROBERT FRIPP. Information is not knowledge; knowledge is not wisdom; wisdom is not truth; truth is not beauty; beauty is not love; love is not music; MUSIC IS THE BEST - FRANK ZAPPA. I think we're a little happier when we have a little music in our lives - STEVE JOBS. Music in the soul can be heard by the universe - LAO TZU. Rock and Roll is fire, man. FIRE. - DAVID BRIGGS. Music grips you, gets into your soul - GEORGE MARTIN
