Nun – I am Arrows (Indie-Electro | London)

I wrote a post a ways back about expectations and reality.  It was something relatively depressing, along the lines of “Don’t get your hopes too high or you’ll trip and fall down a well.”

I’m here now to revise that post, because I Am Arrows’ summer-pop jam “Nun” is just too breezy a track not to convince me otherwise.  It seems as though former Razorlight drummer turned solo-artist Andy Burrows fell in love, moved in with his amour, and it worked out so laughably poorly that it was impossible not to write a feel-good windows-down track about it.  Sure, the goal – true, functional love, I suppose – went unmet, but that’s just a single missing piece of the life-puzzle.  The picture’s still intact, and as luck (or skill, ambition, the like) would have it, the horrid, potentially heart-breaking experience acted as a launchpad to a new beginning – in Burrows’ case, straight into the blogosphere.
