LIST PICK
LONESOME NO MORE FRANCIS LUNG
The latest tune from Francis Lung is an impressive effort that continues to build the hype for his upcoming album, Miracle. ‘Lonesome No More’ takes a look at feelings of loneliness and comes from the personal struggles of the Manchester-based singer-songwriter. “When I thought about loneliness as something personified, it seemed to be like a friend or a lover who is a bad influence. Someone that encourages you to feel sorry for yourself, makes you want to drink more,” he says. “At the same time, someone you just can’t stay away from. The song to me is like a farewell to a state of mind that I fall back into all too easily.” The work of Grant Peacock has delivered a stellar video to accompany the track, which takes clear artistic and comedic influence from animated greats like BoJack Horseman and The Simpsons. -Dan Peeke
