In my free time, the television is on a lot and I try to keep up with primetime as much as I can. Right now, a lot of new shows have debuted and while not all are going to be here more than six months, some still offer great gems.
One of which is a show that plays like a male-centric Sex and The City with CEO’s, called Big Shots. The shows four main characters are each heads of some large corporation, which really doesn’t play much into the actual storyline of the story except that they’re exceptionally rich and surrounded by some incredibly beautiful women, most well above 20, which is possibly to seek a more mature and respectable age group, rather than such reality-dramas as The Hills, centered around some wealthy kids in Hollywood.
After about three episodes having been aired, the die is still rolling on whether this is going to end up a hit or a miss. However, I have to respect ABC, the broadcaster, for their latest trend in featuring great new artists that haven’t quite hit mainstream. Nearing the end of tonight’s episode, the voice of a melancholy young female began to sing a wonderfully sad song. After a moment’s googling and a bit of quick searching I quickly found a snippet of the track and I’m currently downloading the entire album.
The group is called A Fine Frenzy and the track is called “Almost Lover” is seems almost as if it could be a Beatles cover, it may be I am not sure, but it’s delightful and with some effort, one can find it easily.
Here’s a snip of some of the lyrics:
Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I’m trying not to think about you
Can’t you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should’ve known you’d bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do
You must hear it to truly enjoy it.
