Lyrical Effect

So You Think You Can Dance showcases some of the best dancers and choreographers the entertainment world has to offer, but it also spotlights many musicians that remain under the Top 40 radar.  I have yet to watch an episode & not taken away an obscure song or little known (on the stateside) band.

Mostly recognized for their heavy metal sound, Skunk Anansie, have unveiled a softer side with "Squander".  Lead singer Skin's raspy vocals power through gut-wrenching lyrics with emotional force, leaving listeners feeling the emptiness she forebodes...

Why take everything you see?
You'll have nothing left to squander
If you keep pushing me away
You'll have no one left to love
