| Flashlights Released 21st Oct 2007 Lyrics
"I like the singer’s voice, and I like the name. And the 80’s synth arpeggios are pretty incredible." - Damian, OK GO
"Really like this track, especially the arpeg. synth. A tight production as well" - James Digital A & R Columbia / RCA
" It's as commercial as hell and once again shows what this sonofa' has to offer the music world. 'Flashlights' is rammed full of good things. It's bulging with interest; right from the pop-synth intro, through the nu-folk undertones and onto the catchy, melodic indie/rock vibe it's fantastic!" - Toxic Pete
"Some might say Placebo but I wouldn't. I thnk this band are better than Molko and his cohorts!" - Johnny English
"I don't want to say goodbye to this song." - Slice the Pie
"Awesome!" - Kerrang!
