The Script sings moments spent with loved ones in "Millionaires"

Posted by Kevin Z. Rong Friday, June 14, 2013

Irish pop-rock band The Script reflect on the riotous evening of some young Irish drunkards in their brand new music video to their brilliant single, "Millionaires," the fourth single to be lifted from the Irish soft rock band's third studio album, aptly called "#3," which topped the Irish charts and is available to download right now. The Irish boys just finished their Asian leg for their "#3" World Tour last March and are set to perform back in Europe for the following weeks.
Following lead single "Hall of Fame," which features Black Eyed Peas' leader and record producer will.i.am, this Country style ballad "Millionaires," is the closing track of "#3" and it ends the album on an upbeat note as the frontman Danny O'Donogue sings of those precious moments spent with the one you love. "Walking these streets like they're paved with gold," he croons. "Any old excuses not to go. Neither of us wants to take that taxi home. Singing our hearts out. Standing on chairs. Spending our time like we are millionaires."
The Script's biggest problem here is that it sounds like plagiarism and there's no escaping it. Just when you think the similarities are going to stop, the chorus ends with a repeated 'aires' in a moment that will either make you laugh or drop your jaw with indignation. The only real difference between the two is O'Donogue's preference for stadium-friendly guitar licks, but that can't redeem that's being dogged by its own identity crisis. "Millionaires" is not an all-out belter like the previous singles, but this ode to youth and living on a shoe-string is a sure to be a anthem for the summer.
Known for their relatable and heartfelt lyrics, the video, set on an estate in London, features less of the band and rather focuses on two young lovebirds enjoying a night out with their group of friends as they wander around the streets of London making the best of what they can – yes, quite reminiscent of our sleepless nights and reckless youth. Armed with nothing more than a little ingenuity and light-fingered hands, the group manage to have a lot of fun, hit the pub to basically just to hang out, have a laugh and launch flares, as the trio sing along to the tune and roll out some pretty good lyrics.
