Song of the Week - Nothing In My Way/Bad Dream

Under The Iron Sea is one of my favorite modern albums for great melodies.  The first is 4 minutes flat and they're great ones, while Bad Dream's a great 5+ minute song.



Like most, the chorus for Nothing In My Way is where the melodic brilliance comes in to take you away.  Take notice on the harmony being sung, it's quite simple, yet makes the vocal sound a bit more intricate.

Bad Dream is definitely my favorite of the two.  I remember there was a time where it was my song of the month.  I haven't heard it much since that time, but it's been revived.  In my iTunes, it has a play count of 64.  Not bad.  I wonder which song is my most played.. hmm.. I'll definitely have to post my iTunes top 5 most played songs.  'til then!
