Clearest Blue in the top 3 :o G'won, that's a fantastic song.

 

Never quite got into Lies as much as their other songs from that album, so that placing feels right for me.

'Bury It' is too low! It wasn't my favorite by them until I saw them live at music midtown. What a crowd. Drunken mems.

omg they need to tour across the pond asap

They were very good. But, the crowd was the main selling point for that whole festival. There were probably at least 25 people body surfing at any given point.

Shocked at 'Leave A Trace' doing better than 'Gun' and (especially) 'Lies'!

 

Backing a 'Clearest Blue' win. What a stunning song. So euphoric and gorgeous! :wub:

#3. Leave a Trace

 

Average: 9

Rated by: 18

 

 

Feeling relief: 360Jupiter (11), lots of people (10)

 

You cannot build what I don't need: Rabbit Foot (6), Dircadirca, King Rollo (6.5)

 

Leave A Trace was the debut single from their second to last album Every Open Eye. It reached only #120 in our charts but on the Hitseekers Australian chart it actually slayed and went on to peak at #3 *.* I think this song is one of their best, in fact it was challenging Empty Threat for my 11 originally. It's overall a pretty good representational song for someone who is only just discovering their music imo. It comfortably makes the top 3 here despite three people dishing out a score of 6.5 or 6.

#2. Clearest Blue

 

Average: 9.27

Rated by: 18

 

 

Light all over us: Jonjo, lewistgreen, Johnkm (11), Tawdry Hepburn, Spadz, DalekTurret32, SevenSees (10)

 

Tied to the shifting ground: -none-

 

The third single from Every Open Eye and it's packed :music: everyone rating gave this an 8 or above which is very pleasing to see. It's full of excitement throughout and builds up to an incredible drop :wub: the British public were obviously too busy buying several copies of Ed Sheeran or something as it reached a very floppy peak of #195 :/ Gryffin's remix of this gem is also a decent listen, check it out here :cool:

 

 

 

 

 

 

:winner: :no1: The Mother We Share

 

Average: 9.91

Rated by: 18

 

 

It's a souvenir: Chez Wombat, Josh, King Rollo, Klaus, SevenSees (11), lots of people (10)

 

I'm in misery: Jonjo (7.5)

 

The trio's debut single turns out to be the winner! :o It was the first (and last :cry:) song to reach the UK top 40, #38, which achieved such a feat about 5 years ago! 14 out of 18 raters gave it a 10 or 11, five of those giving it 11 making it win by a fair sized landslide. It's definitely got that kind of magic to it especially in the vocals making it a breeze of fresh air to listen to.

Such an epic Top 3 *.*

 

Now I'm ready for some new stuff

Thanks for the 18 raters for rating and commenting :cheer:

Great winner, couldn't be anything else rlly! I remember the elation when I heard that in the top 40 *.* I wish Clearest Blue had been more successful, was so much more striking and experimental than usual for them.

 

Thanks for running this, Spadz~ ^_^

Gryffin's remix of Clearest Blue does elevate it a lot compared to the original.

 

Deserved winner tho. Also Leave a Trace will age well I think.

Thanks for hosting this <3

 

Spectated more than anything as I'm still placing where my faves are. But, I've enjoyed it!
