Vertical Horizon - ‘All Of You’

.

We’re going to agree to ignore that the video above is made up of unrelated clips of Kick Ass. We’re also going to agree to ignore the fact that it sounds like there’s a fairly evil storm brewing over London, because this song is an unashamedly summery slice of pop-rock from way back (how scary is that?) in 1999.

There’s nothing hugely special about this track, I just like it. It wasn’t a single, I didn’t hear it on the radio, I don’t think any of my friends were into the band either. I don’t know much about the band and I actually don’t know a huge amount of the rest of the tracks from the album ‘All of You’ is taken from. In fact, I’m not even sure how I came across the track in the first place—I can only assume it has something to with being a teenager with an insatiable thirst for new music and Audio Galaxy. Oh lordy, horrible memories of bleeping, slow, dial-up connections are coming flooding back… let’s not go there.

Anyway, listen, enjoy, and if you’re in London, hiding from the rain, imagine for a second that you’re not.
