Devil's Broom
"Devil's Broom" is the third single from Joseph Arthur's fourth studio album ''Our Shadows Will Remain''. The single was released on February 13, 2006, in the UK to coincide with his live dates at Shepherd's Bush Empire. It was released on CD and 7" as well as digital download bundles. The CD single's B-side, "Papa", is Joseph's touching ode to his father. He played the song live as early as 1998. In a positive review for ''AngryApe'', David Adair wrote, "'Devil's Broom' represents another stroke of understated genius from the musical palette of Arthur. Mundane and emotive Morrissey styled lyricism and projected singing with a speckle of the troubled cry of Jeff Buckley, is propped up by a wandering accompaniment that Echo & the Bunnymen used to such startling effect." A video for the song was produced, directed by Noaz Deshe. It shows Joseph being dragged through a city interspersed with footage of a female lover he longs to be near.

Songs Written By Joseph Arthur
A song is a musical composition intended to be performed by the human voice. This is often done at distinct and fixed pitches (melodies) using patterns of sound and silence. Songs contain various forms, such as those including the repetition and variation of sections. Written words created specifically for music, or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in classical music it is an art song. Songs that are sung on repeated pitches without distinct contours and patterns that rise and fall are called chants. Songs composed in a simple style that are learned informally "by ear" are often referred to as folk songs. Songs that are composed for professional singers who sell their recordings or live shows to the mass market are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are often composed by professional songwriters, composers, and lyricists. Art songs are composed by trained classical compos ...
