Liverpool Revisited
"Liverpool Revisited" is a song by the Manic Street Preachers, it was the fourth single taken from their album '' Resistance Is Futile''. Written by Nicky Wire, it was released on 6 April 2018. Writing and context The song is an attempt to eulogise the Merseyside city and give a salute to the defiance and perseverance of those who lost their loved ones in the Hillsborough disaster. According to Bradfield, Wire wrote all components of the song: "It's about the 'Justice For The Victims Of Hillsborough' campaign. That campaign fought the entire British establishment to get to the truth, and they finally got there with their ruling." (...) "Nick wrote this song in its entirety. I think I'd gone home for tea with the family and by the time I got back, he'd done a guitar solo – which is a bit cheeky. When he gets into the flow of doing a song on his own, it does just flow." He added that: "When the ruling came out of the High Court, we were just about to do a gig at the Liverpool Ech ...

Songs Written By Sean Moore (musician)
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 composers fo ...

Hillsborough Disaster
The Hillsborough disaster was a fatal human crush during a football match at Hillsborough Stadium in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England, on 15 April 1989. It occurred during an FA Cup semi-final between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest in the two standing-only central pens in the Leppings Lane stand allocated to Liverpool supporters. Shortly before kick-off, in an attempt to ease overcrowding outside the entrance turnstiles, the police match commander, David Duckenfield, ordered exit gate C to be opened, leading to an influx of supporters entering the pens. This resulted in overcrowding of those pens and the crush. With 97 deaths and 766 injuries, it has the highest death toll in British sporting history. Ninety-four people died on the day; another person died in hospital days later, and another victim died in 1993. In July 2021, a coroner ruled that Andrew Devine, who died 32 years after suffering severe and irreversible brain damage on the day, was the 97th victim. The match ...

Resistance Is Futile (album)
''Resistance Is Futile'' is the thirteenth album by Welsh alternative rock band Manic Street Preachers. It was released on 13 April 2018 through Columbia Records. Supported by six singles, the most since their debut, the album was received with positive reviews from music critics. It debuted and peaked at number 2 on the UK Albums Chart. Writing and recording Early in 2017 Kieran Evans said that he was not working on the new album with the band, and that he had heard two new songs that sounded "very, very melodious"; the album was expected to be released later in 2017, but then they had to move to a new studio and it got pushed back. Band member Nicky Wire said that this was a very long gap for the group, and if the new songs were not good enough they would not come out. There was much speculation on whether they were releasing a new album at all, with Wire saying that the last two albums might have drained the band in terms of creativity, with the band saying that they were "i ...

Hold Me Like A Heaven
"Hold Me Like a Heaven" is a song by the Manic Street Preachers, the single, it was the fifth taken from the album '' Resistance Is Futile'', was released on 4 May 2018. Background and reception The song was inspired musically by David Bowie's " Ashes to Ashes" with lyrics informed by the work of Philip Larkin. Nicky Wire explains: "This track sprung from reading Lines on a Young Lady's Photograph Album by Phillip Larkin, and his poem Aubade as well. It was the last lyric written for the record and I knew it had to be special. It's got one of my favourite ever lines, which is 'what is the future of the future/when memory fades and gets boarded up'. We’ve long been obsessed with writing something like Ashes to Ashes; I think this is the closest we'll ever get". The song also "shows that they still have the power for unabashed pop writing", nevertheless Bradfield at first was not very keen on the chorus, but at the end he decided to give something he usually does not like a try, ...

Dylan & Caitlin
"Dylan & Caitlin" is a song by the Manic Street Preachers, released on 9 March 2018, taken from the album '' Resistance Is Futile'' (2018), and written by James Dean Bradfield, Nicky Wire and Sean Moore. It is a duet between the band and The Anchoress, and it was the third single taken from the album. Background About the song Wire said that "James wanted to have something on the album like 'Don't Go Breaking My Heart' by Elton John and Kiki Dee, and I wanted to write something a bit character-based, which isn't really me. The extreme love and extreme hate that can take part in a relationship from both sides. You know us as a band, we've always felt a duty to pass on things that we think are more interesting than we are. From 'Kevin Carter' to 'Let Robeson Sing', it's a part of who we are. 'Interiors' was about Willem de Kooning, Richey had endless reference points. We've always had that desire to pass on. We're always seen as quite a negative, po-faced band, but we're not. It ...
