The album I’ve been waiting for is finally coming in a couple of weeks’ time. Are you a Blue October fan? It’s funny how I ‘accidentally’ became one big fan of theirs.
I was lurking at a CD store one day and told myself ‘okay, let’s pick a CD by some group that I don’t know at all and see how it goes!‘. A big risk because I was worried I’ll end up with some boy band album that might drive me crazy. Luck was on my side when I picked Blue October’s “Foiled” album and minutes into the first track … I knew I did (probably) the most correct choice! The album cover didn’t show the band at all, so I had no idea if it was an album by some young pretty faces who sing corny love songs. Phew. They are a rock band originally from Houston, Texas and there is also a Blue October who is a Synthpop/Pop/Dance band from the UK. Glad I picked the one from the right country. Hahaha!
I proceeded to pick up their earlier albums and also a double CD live album ‘Argue with a tree’. What’s my favourite track? I don’t know. Too many to mention but I love the song ‘James’ lots.
For now … I’ll just have to wait patiently before making a dash to the CD store. Here’s a video for the song ‘Dirt Room’
