London Grammar - Wasting My Young Years (Video)

After nearly three and a half thousand words over the last three days on the blog, today deserves a rather shorter post as we suffer the inevitable post Great Escape comedown.

Here’s the perfect video to start that comedown with. Undoubtedly one of our highlights of Brighton's new music festival, London Grammar’s performance in a beautiful high vaulted church was as lofty, dignified and inspiring as the building itself and the closest we came to tears and goosebumps all weekend. So here's something to rekindle those emotions; whilst we were soaking up the music the band released a video for the song Wasting My Young Years

Is it pop ? Is it soul ? Is it folk ? We really couldn't care, all we know is that everything about this song is insanely beautiful.

The chorus sounds like a straight RIP OFF of the Simply Red classic 'Holding Back the Years.'
I think this group are severely overrated.
TOO MUCH HYPE.

Wasting young years is a gorgeous track, Hey Now is great but otherwise I find them totally bourgois. They can't seem to take a risk, especially with their live lounge covers.
