Anavae, Arthur Walwin & Charlie Bass (Violet) - Closer
"You let one single string raise your head in the morning, give you an excuse and reason to be"
An absolute stormer of a song this track is a true showcase of british talent that we should be proud of. The harmonies between the three are so matched and with the music escalating into full on epic it's hard to believe these guys aren't an actual band that have been together forever.
Zedd featuring Hayley Williams - Stay The Night
"Hold your tongue and hear me out, I know that we were made to break so what? I don't mind"
With Miss Williams being one of my favourite vocalists and Zedd's song being ridiculously catchy it didn't take long for me to love this song.
Tonight Alive featuring Benji Madden - Breakdown
"You give me your reasons but i've heard them all before"
When they released their first album What Are You So Scared Of? the Aussie quintet spent a lot of time on the road capturing new fans with their charged blend of pop-punk. After spending some time off they got the opportunity to record a song with Benji.
Fall Out Boy featuring Elton John - Save Rock And Roll
"How'd it get to be only me? Like i'm the last damn kid still kicking that still believes"
The kind-of surprise announcement of Save Rock And Roll came with a lot of cool collabs with other artists but by far the most shocking was that of Elton John. The track in question shares it's name with the album and also happened to crush the Fall Out Boy fandom.
Lights featuring Coeur De Pirate - Peace Sign (Acoustic)
"We beckon so we can make amends and with the same flip of the hand we curse our friends"
When Lights announced the release of Siberia Acoustic it was a dream come true. There was always something about her music that just seemed perfect to be turned into an entire acoustic album and just like Jesse Lacey said i'm a sucker for anything acoustic. The acoustic version of Peace Sign is gorgeous with the reworking of the french giving the song a whole new sound that extends further than the acoustic.
I Divide featuring Becca Need-Menear - 27 Down
"You can't wait to say it's not your fault somehow, you don't seem to understand the reason why things have to change"
Another example of up and coming british rock music to sink your teeth into and brag about when they become internationally stars.
