about
The Blades announce the release of their new single 'You've A Broken Heart'.
Written by the band's renowned songwriter Paul Cleary, the track is a melodic slow-burner featuring a plaintive muted-trumpet
intro leading to a memorable brass riff redolent of Dexy's Midnight Runners at their best.
One of Paul's best vocals to date, this ostensibly sad but ultimately uplifting number is sure to be a radio-friendly success.
lyrics
YOU'VE A BROKEN HEART
STILL THE WORLD SPINS 'ROUND
NEVER STOPPING TO ASK HOW YOU FEEL
SO YOU TRY TO CONCEAL THE COLOUR IN THE WORLD HAS TURNED TO GREY
YOU'VE A BROKEN HEART TODAY
SO YOU TOSS AND TURN
THROUGH A SLEEPLESS NIGHT
AND YOU CAN'T SEEM TO WALK OUT THE DOOR
LIFE GOES ON BUT WHAT'S IT FOR
NOW THERE'S LITTLE ELSE FOR YOU TO SAY
YOU'VE A BROKEN HEART TODAY
AND THOUGH IT'S COLD AND DARK AS CLOUDS DESCEND
SOMEDAY THE SUN WILL SHINE AGAIN
AND THROUGH THE PAIN YOUR STRENGTH WILL TAKE YOU HOME
SO DON'T GIVE UP
YOU'RE NOT ALONE

I've been a fan of 5GDTTS from over the other side of the world ever since those original EPs came out, so this release really made my week. In particular, Blue Moon is just superb.
Now, another release featuring the rest of the Fanning sessions and some live tracks would really help cement their legacy. :-) Arctinurus
