@shinya90 it was originally released to fans who'd signed up to pledgemusic whilst he was writing the album in 2010, as a thank you for their support. i've had a look around because i absolutely love this song but atm i don't think it's available to download legally or to buy as a cd, which is bollocks but hopefully he'll get round to a mass-market release at some point, or at least put out the four tracks (not including farmer and his gun, which is on young pilgrim) as b-sides. sorry.
his voice is absolutely beautiful- makes his music hypnotising. fightstar are one of my favourite ever bands, but even by himself he's still brilliant !
This song is amazing because it's got a lot of amazing low notes - which is what made me like Charlie in the first place.... his amazing ability to sing low. I would have never cared for Busted if it hadn't been for his voice, nor Fightstar...
.... so it's great that he's doing something different again.
I wasn't a big fan of Busted or Fightstar, but i can appriciate that he needed these to get big, and be noticed as a solo artists. It's all about growing, it's very difficault to become an instant 'big hit', maybe he just needed to establish what he wanted to do. You guys should be thankful he did these, not slating him for it, and thats coming from a not particular liker of Buster or Fightstar.
People need to shut up and stop fighting. You all may be glad Busted is over but if it wasn't for Busted, Charlie wouldn't be in the position he is in today. Busted was a cool pop group and now Charlie is singing a more adult style and I personally like it a lot better. But I also like Busted and Fightstar.
i personally think with charlie's talent he would still have become successful without busted. Yes busted were a good band and all of the members had real talent so even if you don't like them it would be a lie to say that they were a bad band. charlie made his descision to leave busted and uf you were real fans you would resepect that. and if your not, then what the fuck are you doing listening to this song? go and find something you like and stop shedding.
@ScreamShoutRAWR do us a favour and fuck off somewhere else where you dont have to listen to 'this crap'. Charlie's amazing. Like to see you do better. :)
@ScreamShoutRAWR haha whatever this crap is. If you know charlies voice then you would know that yes it does sound like him. So you are wrong. Now kindly fuck off :)
@aj530040 are you actually kidding?? are you 14 years old? Busted was the worst thing charlie has done and he has admitted it many times. Get a life :)
@592072 The thing is, Busted was the better choice of boy bands for my age group (I am 14) and most of us still sorely miss it. :L. And I was one of those kids that had my dad's influence from the 50's/60's/70's rock scene. But all of his solo work is so much nicer, and soothing, and shows of his musical talent, more than any of the work he's done before.
@592072 Wihtout Busted, Charlie wouldn't be anything. He is soo talented, he is so amazing, I love him, but he still isn't much. Rephrase - without Busted Charlie wouldn't be so well known. Get a clue :)
@blondebluebird No, Fightstar (and charlie) would have got as far as they are now on their own merits. Busted was targeted at a different demographic.
@blondebluebird It was a part of his life, obviously. But i believe fightstar would have progressed on their own merits, not on the hype of busted. they are hardly alike. And yes, they are targeted at different demographics. Busted was pop, pop punk at best. Fighstar are post hardcore.
Really pretty but... I will follow you into the dark..? It rings me a bell... Hahaha.
(But I'll love Charlie Simpson until the end!)
