The Energies - Born Again Runner


Word has it that Nick Nicola, aka The Energies, creates these catastrophic woozy bummed-out chimes in his so-called creative enthralled base – The Energy Station. Well Nick, upon first hearing your piss-poor attempt at some clapped out befuddled pop song I was curious…what is it you get up to in your “station”? Because it certainly aint the ticket sunshine. Taken over by tedious and tiresome lyrical dysfunction, it’s about as stimulating as watching the X-Factor in black and white with the volume off. And if that wasn’t enough! Nick’s only gone and bloody found the most anaemic musical backbone for his disaster creation that sounds like The Fray covering Take That! Energy Station? Energy sucking I think you’ll find Nicholas.

A poor review from a poor blog. Dan Jones don't give up the day job...you're absolutely clueless

"The Fray covering Take That"???
Since when did Take That make songs like this? Strange comparison.

'it’s about as stimulating as watching the X-Factor'

Same can be said about this blog: Utter utter rubbish. Get back to reading Catcher in the Rye and leave the proper musical discussion to the grownups.

im very surprised by your review daniel jones. are you aware that the born again runner remixes have reached the number 3 position on the uk club chart? obviously many people like it. i personally think it's a good song. not groundbreaking but just a good song. your level of vitriol is most bemusing.

after reading this, I doubt the writer is heading for a career in music journalism. piss poor? yes, that's your attempt at a music review.

ah well seeing as all of these comments were all left within 30 minutes i wonder...Mr Energies?

Also, charts? since when has popularity counted for anything? The fucking cheeky girls made it into the charts.

ok just checked the times. About an HOUR, just as we're all being so fickle

I was intrigued by such a slating review and even more by the "sore loser" style comments, so i listened to this song to see if i agreed. 100% yes, i can't believe this band is signed, what is up with the music industry? boring boring boring and lyrics not fit to wipe my arse with.
If you can't even take criticism from a blogger, fuck knows what you'll do if by some miracle you make it into a magazine. Well done dj
