However they didn’t exactly disappear from the spotlight – radio will always play the “Grey’s Anatomy”-approved anthem “Chasing Cars.” But the Northern Irish/Scottish band has kept a low profile since releasing “Fallen Empires” in 2011.

The new single “Guiding Light” – a slow building folksy track that’s apparently “emblematic” of the new album – has been made available online and will be followed by the album […]
Taylor Swift – The 21st Century’s Most Disorienting Artist?
Taylor Swift’s can sometimes be difficult to relate to. It’s sometimes a concept, phrase, or even a word, that in that moment makes you realize that this song isn’t about you.

Our Favorites From Glenn Frey
Although Glenn Frey, founding member of The Eagles, is no longer with us, his music remains to remind each of us how talented he was.
