This long-established Irish band who take their name from the Turkish word for lion, as used by CS Lewis, have released this three-track single which includes a remix of "Shine A Light" and a creditable live version of "Rock n Roll Suicide" (a David Bowie classic?), featuring Gerry Fish. The title track, written by Aslan, is very ear-catching and worthy of airplay. The lyrics expose those in the music industry who make money by putting performers in the spotlight only until it's time to spit them out and introduce the next good thing.
