One eskimO - Musical Gold

The One2One Network recently gave the opportunity to receive, listen to and review a new and up-coming British band, One eskimO.

Before receiving their CD, their name didn't ring a bell and I thought that I had never heard of them before. When I began listening to their music, they sounded really familiar to me! Well, come to find out... I had heard one of their songs before and didn't even know it!

KANDI is the song that I had heard on the radio and enjoyed several times, it's a beautifully emotional song. You may have already heard it too since it's the most played song on all adult rock radio for the past 4 weeks and counting.
One eskimO, “Kandi” Hit #1 on the Mediabase Radio Chart making it the most played song on all adult rock stations in the US!

Billboard Magazine calls One eskimO's self-titled debut album "...catchy, ambient pop." and Los Angeles Times Magazine hails the song "Kandi" “a beautiful, aspirational track.” The album is available in stores now.



You've been my queen for longer than you know
My love for you has been
Every step I take
Every day I live
Everything I see

And if I get things wrong
Don't want you to think I'm running away
But I heard from Jo about this guy And I want to know

What did he say?
He called me baby, baby all night long
What did he do?
He called me baby, baby all night long

Why? Why? Why, did you need him?
Where was I?
Just how close to you is he?
Every smile you gave
Every touch you made
Every word you said

And it hurts beyond hurt
It was a love that blinds
And a love that stings
When I heard from Jo about this guy
And I want to know

What did he say?
He called me baby, baby all night long
What did he do?
He called me baby, baby all night long
What did he do?

He called you baby, baby all night long
What did he do?
He called me baby, baby all night long
What did he say?
He called me baby, baby, all night long
What did he do?
He called you baby, baby, all night long

I know he called you babe
All night long




One eskimO are a four member alternative rock group from London, England consisting of Kristian Leontiou (vocals), Adam Falkner (drums), Pete Rinaldi (guitar) and Jamie Sefton (bass and horns). Frontman Leontiou has had past experience in the music industry in which, he was marketed towards the popular culture and in 2004, had a top ten hit in the UK and a widely successful album. Uncomfortable with the music and image he was pressured into presenting, Leontiou broke away from the pop scene and embarked on the One eskimO project.

MY OPINION:

One eskimO has a musical heart of gold. Their songs are touching, moving and motivating. Each and every one of us can relate to atleast on of One EskimO's songs on their album. The messages they relay in their songs are profound and thought provoking. Whether it's love, heartbreak, success or defeat, we have all been there and One EskimO's songs will take you there.

One eskimO is music for every age. No matter what type of music you listen to now, I'm sure that you would enjoy the music of One eskimO. I love it, my mom loves it and so does my 6 year old daughter!
