The Kooks - Sway
Review by Aletheya aletheya
The Kooks have delivered yet another fantastic album with their latest release, Sway. The album is a perfect blend of indie rock and pop, showcasing the band's versatility and musical prowess.
From the opening track "Kids" to the closing number "No Pressure," Sway takes the listener on a journey through catchy hooks, upbeat rhythms, and introspective lyrics. The album features a range of emotions, from the bittersweet nostalgia of "Weight of the World" to the hopeful optimism of "Swing Low."
The band's signature sound is still present on Sway, but there is a noticeable evolution in their style. The production is slicker, the instrumentation more sophisticated, and the songwriting more mature.
Lead singer Luke Pritchard's vocals are as impressive as ever, with his distinctive voice adding a layer of emotional depth to every track. The rest of the band - guitarist Hugh Harris, bassist Peter Denton, and drummer Alexis Nunez - are equally talented, creating a cohesive and dynamic sound.

Ondeggiare
Dici quello che hai da dire
starò con te
e fai quello che devi fare
per farlo uscire fuori
e non farlo diventare
un brutto ricordo
con le persone che amo
non mi sono mai inteso
ma lo fatto si io lo fatto
Sei quello che devi essere
io non ti giudicherò
canta quello che devi cantare
per farlo uscire fuori
non diventare una reclusa
esci fuori da casa tua
so che non vuoi ,ma l'hai fatto
oh tu hai
ancora ho bisogno del tuo ondeggiare
perche si pagano gli errori
ho bisogno,ho bisogno della tua anima
perchè sei molto sensibile
ed io ho bisogno del tuo cuore
perchè sei sempre la migliore
Prendi quello che devi prendere
Lo sai che ti amo
e vieni da me sè devi venire
fai uscire quello che hai dentro
prenditela con me
ti darò il mio cuore
Dici quello che hai da dire
starò con te
e fai quello che devi fare
per farlo uscire fuori
e non farlo diventare
un brutto ricordo
con le persone che amo
non mi sono mai inteso
ma lo fatto si io lo fatto
Sei quello che devi essere
io non ti giudicherò
canta quello che devi cantare
per farlo uscire fuori
non diventare una reclusa
esci fuori da casa tua
so che non vuoi ,ma l'hai fatto
oh tu hai
ancora ho bisogno del tuo ondeggiare
perche si pagano gli errori
ho bisogno,ho bisogno della tua anima
perchè sei molto sensibile
ed io ho bisogno del tuo cuore
perchè sei sempre la migliore
Prendi quello che devi prendere
Lo sai che ti amo
e vieni da me sè devi venire
fai uscire quello che hai dentro
prenditela con me
ti darò il mio cuore

Excelent music video. It feels like a beach town during the low season. And captures in a genius way the disilussion of a relationship break up. Love this song and love The Kooks. ?

Say whatever you have to say,
I'll stand by you.
Do whatever you have to do,
To get it out and not become a reaction memory
To hurt the ones you love
You know you never meant to but you do
Oh yeah you do
Be whoever you have to be, I won't judge you
Sing whatever you have to sing
To get it out and not become a recluse about how to come out
I know you never meant to but you do
Oh but you do
Still I need your sway, because you always pay for it
And I, and I need your soul
Because your always soulful
And I and I need your heart,
Because your always in the right places
And take whatever you have to take,
You know I love ya
Come however you have to come,
And get it out and get it out
Tttttake it out on me, take it out on me
I'll give it you all,
I give it you all, I give it
I give you all
I give it you all,
Yes I will give it you all
Cause I need your sway,
Because you always pay for it
And I, and I need your soul
Because your always soulful
And I and I need your heart,
Because your always in the right places
Oh yes I will, I will give it you all
Still I need your sway,
Because you always pay for it
And I, and I need your
Soul because your always soulful
And I and I need that heart,
Because your always in the right places.
I'll stand by you.
Do whatever you have to do,
To get it out and not become a reaction memory
To hurt the ones you love
You know you never meant to but you do
Oh yeah you do
Be whoever you have to be, I won't judge you
Sing whatever you have to sing
To get it out and not become a recluse about how to come out
I know you never meant to but you do
Oh but you do
Still I need your sway, because you always pay for it
And I, and I need your soul
Because your always soulful
And I and I need your heart,
Because your always in the right places
And take whatever you have to take,
You know I love ya
Come however you have to come,
And get it out and get it out
Tttttake it out on me, take it out on me
I'll give it you all,
I give it you all, I give it
I give you all
I give it you all,
Yes I will give it you all
Cause I need your sway,
Because you always pay for it
And I, and I need your soul
Because your always soulful
And I and I need your heart,
Because your always in the right places
Oh yes I will, I will give it you all
Still I need your sway,
Because you always pay for it
And I, and I need your
Soul because your always soulful
And I and I need that heart,
Because your always in the right places.
