"Never Gonna See Me Cry"-Good Old War
Now here's one smooth, gliding power-pop concoction that should have you singing along with its delightfully hooky chorus before this three-minute clip comes to a cold close with a "ha-ha-ha!"
The band is Philadelphia's Good Old War -- a group moniker Frankensteined from members Keith GOODwin, Tim ArnOLD and Daniel SchWARtz's surnames -- who have come up with their most radio-friendly track to date.
"Never Gonna See Me Cry" is fun and clean and genuine and full of lyrical metaphors. And aside from being skillfully scored, what really stands-out is the song's smartly crafted harmonies. You'll "Ahh" at their "Oohs."
This very good Good Old War song has been around since last year, but because the band's label is just now getting behind and promoting the trio's "new" single, I just had to give "Never Gonna See Me Cry" five :v) :v) :v) :v) :v)... and zero frowns.
I don't think the alt-indy guys have released an official music video* for "Never Gonna See Me Cry," yet... but you can stream the audio by clicking on the image below. And, to give you an idea of how vocally talented these dudes are, be sure to audition their library acoustic version, too! They're both right here!
