The Struts – Primadonna Like Me
Derby band The Struts, now working from Los Angeles, are well underway to become the best classic rock band of this decennium. After One Night Only and Body Talks, they are now serving up the third single ahead of their second album. Judging from these tracks, that long-player is unlikely to disappoint.
Primadonna Like Me – a brilliant song title for flamboyant frontman Luke Spiller – opens with a cowbell, proceeding into an intro that brings back fond memories of songs like Start Me Up, Saturdaynight’s Alright (For Fighting) and many more. And with a first line like ‘Hey you, don’t you know who I think I am?’ you know for sure Spiller hasn’t forgotten to squeeze in the right amount of bravado.
The Struts continue to hit the bull’s eye. One hundred and eightyyyyyyyyy!
