THE CHILLS: Heavenly Pop

Posted about 1 year ago
This post for the superb New Zealand pop band, The Chills, shows their many sides... They are the epitome of what a great pop band should be... great tunes, interesting lyrics, simple at times, complex at others... They are a criminally overlooked band...Here's three more songs for your enjoyment... The first of these is a rollicking tune about Global Warming... (keeping in mind that American winters are hot summers in New Zealand)... Here's "February"...

  7. ZenPop says Chalky: You're entirely welcome! Dig a little deeper... their music is fantastic... not enough room to post the 84 songs (probably much more) that deserve attention... Dale: I knew you would have a basis for their stuff... and really glad you like them... Just the tip of the iceberg, my friend.... Lizzie: Thanks so much for the kind words! Keep listening to them... you might change your mind! ha...
