“I’m shining for you, brighter than morning stars”
Jack O’Rourke – Shining For You
Colm writes:
Cork singer-songwriter Jack O’Rourke releases his 2nd single, ‘Shining For You’ tomorrow, which precedes his debut EP ‘The Other Side Of Now’ set for release in June 2015. This time, Jack peers inwards and delivers an anthem of hope for anyone who has survived hard times and lived to tell the tale. This song shines brightly…

Jack, could I tempt you to add an extra consonant to your song title and access a whole new, more nationalistic audience.
Shinting, shinfing, shinsing, shinling…? None of those make any sense. I fear you’re mistaken, much like the Shinners often are. Hang on… Nope. Still don’t have it.
Derivative.
Helen, you old scamp!
Derivative of what exactly?
As someone who has survived hard times and lived to tell the tale (and am, in fact, telling it in part here today), I felt, while listening to this tune, that the crooner had clearly had a good inward peer and was singing a song of hope. An anthem, if you will.
This Colm fellow does this Jack fellow no favours with his teenage’y sh!te.
Very nice. Lovely timbre to his voice.
You previously featured Jack..

recorded and mixed very well, I like it, too smooth though, bit of grit would be better, like,
