Dear Nerina Pallot
I wanted to contact you and leave you a message on your Myspace page, but i’m not a member so therefore I can’t do that!
But anyway, maybe one day you’ll be surfing the net and come across this post.
I just want to congratulate you on your album, ‘Fires.’
It has been a great inspiration to me, because I happen to write my own lyrics and music.
When I heard your song, ‘Everybody’s gone to war,’ it really got me because you said on one of your interviews that you wrote it about some close friends of yours. I love the lyrics and how you described the following: ‘If love is a drug I guess we’re all sober, if hope is a song I guess it’s all over, how to have faith when faith is a crime, I don’t want to die, if god’s on our side, then god is a joker, asleep on the job his children fall over, running out through the door and straight to the sky, I don’t want to die.’
And not to mention the melody, because in my opinion, a song isn’t a song without a proper melody.
I’ve also heard another one of your songs called, ‘Patience,’ which was from your earlier album, ‘Dear Frustrated Superstar.’ I actually watched the video on Youtube, and I have to say that this song is also one of my favourites!!!
The way you do all of those, ‘Yeah, yeah, yeah,’ and stuff at the beginning, it makes the song really catchy and interesting!!!
The film clip created the perfect atmosphere to suit the song as well.
I love the songs on your album, ‘Fires,’ because your lyrics are so mature and the music and melodies are catchy and worth listening to.
I like the fact that you are unique with your music and with your voice, I can say that there are a lot of rap artists and rock bands, but there’s only one you!
Keep making and creating songs!!!
Love sincerely
One of your fans
