Alive is a summer anthem
written for the people.
The key message of the song is that anyone can change the world regardless of situation or circumstance but is also a comment on how regulated we are as a society. It is deliberately loose to give the song a live effortless feel.
The whole piece is seamless, that naturally flows from one part to the next without clunky changes. Overall alive is all about attitude and making your own rules.
'Did you ask yourself "where has the real music gone?" when you watched The Brits? Well, we just found it. The Silver Lines just rocked our frickin' boat'
