Jimmy Eat World - ‘Always Be’ Music Video Review | Or It Could Be Bon Jovi…

by Dave Parrack on March 11th, 2008

Being in the UK, certain bands appear, then disappear and the reappear again years later. Jimmy Eat World are a band which keep finding their way back in to my consciousness.

This is their latest single, Always Be, which sounds softer and more measured than last time I heard from them. In fact they sound like they’ve turned in to Bon Jovi. Oh dear.

That’s not to say it’s a bad song, despite it’s Jovi quality, I just expected something more. Instead we get a poncy pop song, which isn’t where I want them to go.

It’s a catchy song, building from the start right through to the ending, which unfortunately just seems to fad out rather than reaching the climax I was expecting it to.

The video again is okay, but nothing particularly special. It shows a school outing to a museum, where Jimmy Eat World are one of the exhibitions. Exciting! Not.

Song: 6/10
Video: 4/10
