Release Notes:
Friday is the second single from loveable rockers
Goldspot, recently took grumpy Glastonbury goers by
storm (pun intended). Cheerful, melodic and
unashamedly pop-rock, the song is refreshingly free
from the give-me-a-break angst so many soft rockers
are guilty of. With a mixed bag of influences, the
most unusual is the Indian sitar that opens the
song. Sid Khosla does a great job of the vocals,
taking the unique clarity of Johnny Borrell, but
choosing to leave his moronic arrogance at the door
in favour of a charm more akin to Travis. The vocals
propel the track, but are complimented with some
interesting string work that manages to lift the
song without overpowering it. My advice - pour a
pear cider, sit back and enjoy
