That was a fantastic year for music. Mr Brightside by The Killers, Take me Out by Franz Ferdinand, The Bucket by Kings of Leon, Cant Stand me Now and What became of the Likely Lads by The Libertines, I Predict a Riot by Kaiser Chiefs, Banquet by Block Party, Reptilia by The Strokes to name a few.

I remember first seeing Razorlight at live 8 and they did this tune and somewhere else and the next day i went out and bought the album Up All Night...Razorlight are massively under rated as band and some people say Johnny Borrel is arrogant.He's not arrogant he is the front man for the band and if you want to get up and sing the first rule is fuck what people think of you..Otherwise you would never be able to have the balls to get up and sing in the first place.Respect from Bolton to Razorlight

Ahhh memories

is a track about a girl who seemingly has it all - talent, beauty, and success. The lyrics describe how everyone around her envies her and tries to bring her down by criticizing her or spreading rumors about her when she's not around. However, the narrator is close to this girl with the "golden touch" and is telling her not to pay heed to these negative remarks. The song suggests that jealousy and envy are common among people, especially when someone else appears to be more successful or happy than they are. The line "they'll never do the things that they wish that they could do so well" implies that these people envy the girl because they lack the skill or drive to achieve the same level of success. The chorus repeats this message with the line "all they know is how to put you down," indicating that the ones who criticize or spread rumors are not worth paying attention to and that the girl should continue to shine bright, using her "golden touch" to make a difference in the world. Overall, "Golden Touch" is a reminder to focus on one's talents and not let negative comments from others bring them down.

Jesus Christ why time flies so fast 😭 Still love this song so freaking much, same feelings as many years ago when i was teenager 🖤 Heart is screaming it outttt “…all they knoooooooooow”

I can't put into words the feelings this song gives me. It's like the thrill of experiencing everything for the first time. Like the first time I played PlayStation, the day I received my first paycheck, the moment I first found love. It's like the first time I truly enjoyed life...

I know a girl with the golden touch She's got enough, she's got too much But I know, you wouldn't mind You could have it all if you wanted You could have it all if it mattered so much But then all they know is how to put you down When you're there, they're your friend But then when you're not around They say, "Oh, she's changed" We know what they mean Well they mean, they're just jealous Because they never do the things That they wish that they could do so well That kind of girl, yes she's never alone You leave a thousand messages on her phone But you know you never get through And you could have it all if you wanted, girl You could have it all if it matters to you But then all they know is how to put you down When you're there, they're your friend But then when you're not around They say, "Oh, she's changed" We know what they mean Well they mean, they're just jealous Because they never do the things That they wish that they could do so well I saw my girl with the golden touch Give 'em a taste but not too much I just can't listen to the words of fools I don't give away too much Someone will need your golden touch But then all they know is how to put you down When you're there, they're your friend But then when you're not around They say, "Oh, she's changed" We know what they mean Well they mean, they're just jealous Because they never do the things That they wish that they could do so well But then all they know is how to put you down When you're there, they're your friend But then when you're not around They say, "Oh, she's changed" We know what they mean Well they mean, they're just jealous Because they never do the things That they wish that they could do so well
