The Ark - One Of Us Is Gonna Die Young

One of the many great songs by the Swedish glam-rock-pop group The Ark. This track is from their third album State Of The Ark (2005). They used to be very popular, at least in here Northern Europe, but somehow never really managed to make it anywhere else. The band still releases albums every couple of years, but aren't very active in any other way.

In my opinion the lead singer Ola Salo should have kept his shirt on confused

A nice uplifting album nod

I have State of the Ark and Prayer For The Weekend.

Haven't heard the last one yet

Oh, and I like a public figure showing there's no shame in a healthy six-pack-less body shrug

You should get their first two albums as well. Their biggest anthem's are on those. The latest album is kinda hit and miss. Most of the songs we're supposed to be on Ola's solo album and some have a strange country music vibe, which I'm not into at all. This is their biggest hit It Takes A Fool To Remain Sane from their first album We Are The Ark (2000)

I don't really have a problem with six-pack-less shirtlessness it's just the shirtlessness of people who usually wear beautiful shirts lol
