My Thoughts on No-One: The Third New Song

Ever since I heard the announcement that Made Of Rain will be released in July I hoped another new song would eventually come out sometime later. Well, I was right, because at four in the morning The Psychedelic Furs came out with the third song from Made Of Rain called "No-One". When I first saw The Furs' post on Twitter I got super ecstatic and went straight to YouTube. After when I listened to the new song many times I wanted to work on writing about my thoughts on it but my mind was in a blank. I didn't know how to start because I was very much in awe about "No-One" and all I could do was just sit there. It was so exciting hearing a new Psychedelic Furs song and it felt like it was Christmas all over again. Later today I listened to "No-One" three more times and so now I will tell you all how I feel about it.

"No-One" is absolutely spectacular and the first time I heard the song I got kind of emotional because there's just something about it. I really love the music and Rich Good is a very awesome guitarist. The sound of his guitars are so beautiful, pure, and crystalline, it makes me think of lights sparkling in the water. And once again, Richard Butler's voice still blows me away. His singing on "No-One" is phenomenal, gorgeous, and fantastic, especially on the choruses. Before "No-One" came out "You'll Be Mine" was my favorite song so far from Made Of Rain but now I think "No-One" will become my new favorite or it will be tied with "You'll Be Mine". I heard that BBC 6 actually played "No-One" last Thursday and I didn't even know about it!

After hearing "Don't Believe", "You'll Be Mine", and "No-One" it makes me really excited and curious about the rest of Made Of Rain's songs. I'm interested about what "The Boy That Invented Rock & Roll" and "Wrong Train" will be like in studio form. Even though Made Of Rain is not out yet I have to say it is, in my own opinion, definitely the album of the year!
