Youngblood Hawke - We Come Running

You ever listen to a song that just makes you happy and makes you feel as though you can conquer and take on the world? This is a song that makes me feel that way… “We Come Running” by Youngblood Hawke was the free song of the week on iTunes about 2 weeks ago and that’s where I first heard of it. Whenever I listen to a song for the first time, the melody is originally what I listen for. This track is heavy on melody and I especially love it during the chorus. The pounding percussions and driving synths end up transforming it from more than just a ‘chorus in a song’ to more of an anthem “Soon they’re gonna hear the sound when we come running!”.  Another thing about the song that I love, but didn’t pick up on until about the third listen, is the use of bells. I think it’s such a cool addition to an already great track and really makes it stand out. I’ve only heard bells used in one other song that’s not about Christmas (though I’m sure they are used more than I realize)… Definitely give this song a listen. I guarantee by the end of it you’ll come running along with the rest of us Youngblood Hawke fans.
