Mew - Special

Danish prog rockers Mew is one of the country's finest bands, and "Special" is probably their most accessible song ever. It was a moderately big hit, deservedy so, upon its 2005 release, lifted from the album And The Glass Handed Kites. The ingredients we know and love are all in place, an intricate melody and structure, loud guitars and Jonas Bjerre's fascinating voice, but also a steady beat that makes it a bit more... user-friendly, to put it simply. There's a world of great Mew music to be heard, and this is an excellent introduction.
