Northern Lights by Allo Darlin'
The superbly jangly "Northern Lights" is the third single to be taken from Allo Darlin's excellent second album Europe. Written about a New Year's Eve spent in Sweden the song somehow manages to imbue a wintery scene with a sweet breath of sunshine as Elizabeth Morris' voice rings out clear as a bell and Paul Rain's guitar melodies shine brightly. It’s backed by "Golden Age," a B-side which seems to exist simply to prove that Allo Darlin’ have super-catchy melodic pop gems to burn
