My New Favourite Band! THE DELAYS

Has anybody else heard them??? The lead singer is a bloke but he sounds like Annie Lennox.

Their website is cool: http://www.thedelays.co.uk/

If you go to the Audio section of their site, skip forward to track five in the audio player. It's called Wanderlust. It's one of the best songs I've heard all year.

Doesn't the lead-singer have an unusual voice?

Yes. I am always a sucker for the non-usual.

I'm not hearing what you're hearing. It's more strident than whiney.

I need to listen to that Valentine song more. It's that Wanderlust song which is haunting me.
