LUKE TOMS – Peace By Myself (CD & 7″ Singles)

Island 1730054 / 1730055: 23rd April 2007
1. Peace By Myself
“It’s the darkness I hate, alone and afraid, you being here helps a bit, she sits, but that’s not enough for her”
2. Crazy
“You can’t be sure, ’til I’m out on that floor, can’t you see, it’s meant to be”
3. She
“She’s not denied, when she’s in sight of men who desire her completely”

‘Peace By Myself’ is an emotional Piano lament graced with a rare grandeur and is easily the best thing the boundlessly talented Luke Toms has released so far. He evokes the supreme Glam-Pop of Bowie, Jobriath and Cockney Rebel and tempers it with an emotional realism. ‘Crazy’ is a roller-coaster composition taking in everything from Brass-Bands to jaunty Harpsichords. ‘She’ is a haunting song blessed by the gorgeous Mellotron and the sighing of angels which for reasons that I can’t quite explain reminded me of Nirvana. With this release, Luke Toms has moved from a new artist with an ear-catching debut single and a few quality mp3s, to a fully rounded talent who looks set for success.

    Good – I should definitely pronounce, impressed with your site. I had no trouble navigating through all the tabs as well as related info ended up being truly easy to do to access. I recently found what I hoped for before you know it in the least. Reasonably unusual. Is likely to appreciate it for those who add forums or something, site theme . a tones way for your client to communicate. Excellent task.
