The Shires - Friday Night (Decca Nashville)
 |
| The Shires - Friday Night |
Release Date: Out Now
Here we have a British duo who
are helping to resurrect the legendary Decca Nashville label after years lying
dormant. The Shires are a country-pop pairing and, if I hadn't heard different
with mine own ears I would swear that their new single 'Friday Night' was the
UK's entry in to Eurovision. Now don't get me wrong, I love a bit of Eurovision
and there is a sweet, harmonious, catchy nature to this tune all about getting
drunk at the end of the working week. There's just something almost too
innocent about the song that gives it that slightly cheesy Eurovision feel. This
is, in essence, the getting drunk part without the bitterness that comes with
the horrible realisation of a hangover. Oh, to have those heady days again...
