Watch out for Blue Merle Bogus Files

[mooseaka]

Hey gang, I got an e-mail from a friend who said he downloaded "Swallowed by the Sea" from a P2P. He sent it to me and it was actually "Burned by the Sun" by a band called Blue Merle.

 

If you havn't heard Blue Merle, the singer has flat out stolen Chris Martin's singing style, falsetto and all. My fiance and I once heard one of their songs on the radio in the car and she thought it was a new Coldplay song. They have a single called "If I Could" that isn't a bad song, but a flat out rip off of CP's style (well, mostly the vocals).

 

Anyway, keep an eye out for this bogus file, during these, ahem, exciting times.

[Egghead]

[TimeIsOnYourSide]

"I reckon" he's from southern US :lol:

[mooseaka]

Yeah, they're from Nashville. Blue Merle, that is. I'm from Philly, and I've been lurking on these boards about five times a day for a few months.

 

I can't believe my first post was about Blue "Hack" Merle. :huh:

 

Keep up the good work gang.

....i heard this group at a barnes & noble a few months back, and it was alarming to hear them...i immediately thought they were a side project that chris had secretly made.

I quite like them actually. I've only heard Burned by the Sun in full, but the clips on their website are pretty good.
