The Kooks – Sway

Tonight’s song has been stuck in my head for the better part of a week now, which usually indicates that a blog post is in order.  SwaySway reviews comes to us from The KooksThe Kooks reviews‘ second album Konk, and was the third single to accompany the release.  Konk would yield the greatest results to-date for the indie-rock group reaching the #1 position on the UK Albums Chart.  Although the album was a success in the UK, it has achieved only marginal results in North America with the single Always Where I Need to BeAlways Where I Need to Be reviews hitting #22 on the U.S. Hot Modern Rock Tracks.  

Say whatever you have to say, I’ll stand by you.
Do whatever you have to do, to get it out and not become a reaction memory
To hurt the ones you love you know you never meant to but you do
oh yeah you do

Be whoever you have to be, I won’t judge you
Sing whatever you have to sing to get it out and not become a recluse about how to come out
I know you never meant to but you do
oh but you do

Still I need your sway, because you always pay for it
And I, and I need your soul because your always soulful
And I and I need your heart, because your always in the right places

And take whatever you have to take, you know I love ya
come however you have to come, and get it out and get it out

Tttttake it out on me, take it out on me
I’ll give it you all, I give it you all,i give it
I give you all I give it you all, yes I will give it you all

Cause I need your sway, because you always pay for it
And I, and I need your soul because your always soulful
And I and I need your heart, because your always in the right places

Oh yes I will, I will give it you all

Still I need your sway, because you always pay for it
And I, and I need your soul because your always soulful
And I and I need that heart, because your always in the right places.
