Razorlightis a British/Swedish band formed in the summer of 2002 around singer/writer Johnny Borrell. Razorlight is a four-piece consisting of Borrell (vocals & guitar), Björn Ågren (guitar), Carl Dalemo (bass) and Andy Burrows (drums) Their sound is similar to The Strokes, Franz Ferdinand, and Kings of Leon, but perhaps with some slight post-punk tones à la The Hives. Their debut album, Up All Night, was released on June 28, 2004, reaching number 3 in the UK album charts on 4 July. The critical reception was generally good, receiving good reviews from NME, Q magazine and Billboard, although they were also accused of lack of imagination and unoriginality for allegedly borrowing ideas from other influential bands, notably The Strokes. They appear to polarize opinion.

Razorlight

Everyone Is Losing It
Everybody's Given Up
Given Up The Ghost
And Turn It In On Themselves

Lets Head For Somewhere
Absolutely Anywhere
Get Outta Here
And Leave This City Alone

So Let Me Know, I'll Take You There
Just Think It Over
Then Take What You Need

Concealing A Weapon With The Light Turned It Low
You See It Like That Now

Oh!

Some Have It Easy, But This Is Hard To Touch
T' To Define Yeah, But Then Its All Too Much
Hard To Want, Yeah, You're Hard To Get Yeah
You're Hard To Play Yeah!

So Let Me Know, I'll Take You There
You Think It Over
You Take Waht You Need

Concealing A Weapon Like The Pick To Your Soul
You're Sunning The Truth Now

But I Believe In You
But I Believe In You
But I Believe In You

Hey!

I Know You Will Find You Drawn To
You Are The New You, You, You
