Re: What song are you listening to right now?

Sam Fender - People Watching (2025)

On first run through, what a great album. Seems a contradiction in terms, but Sam seems to be more embracing the "Shields Springsteen" tag than shaking it and as a result is sounding so much more. Certainly the "in-your-face" brashness has gone and there's a more mature sound coming through. There are hints of a more "jangly" Indie sound and even flashes reminiscent of Ray Davies.
Nice one, kidda....

PS - Buying direct from Sam's website, in order to get a signed memento, which didn't cost much more than the CD alone at a High St. retailer, the bundle I bought included a cassette version of the album. C'mon, when was the last time you bought a cassette?
