Sons Of Liberty

As tempting as it was to just go through Motion City Soundtracks entire back catalogue for the next few weeks I thought it would be nice to change things up a bit!

So one of the best musicians to have ever graced this planet Frank Turner is up today. I've him seen live 3 times so far and for a 4th later this year and obviously this song is the song i cant wait to hear. When played live he just seems to make it even more epic and awesome:


I love strings in songs and the violin solo in this song is just insanely good. The first 2 times I saw him live he played the violin solo on the guitar and i was just blown away at his mad guitar skills. The third time one of his support bands (sorry I cant remember the name of them) played the violin solo on a violin and it just made my year seeing the song how it was meant to be played. My favourite line of the song has to be "and I'd rather stand up naked against the elements alone" it provokes a powerful image in mind. The strong lyrics along with his passionate and powerful singing is just what makes Mr Turner so good.

    I've seen him four times in the last 6 months, Wembley being the last and this song is one of my favourite live, and Fathers Day
