I remember the first time I heard this song. I had just woken up around 2pm Saturday from what must have been a great Friday night, and my TV was on VH1. The host began to give some spill about a rock band called the Plain White T’s and their new song. I was just about to turn it, when I heard Tom Higgenson’s voice whispering through the speakers. By the time he said New York City, I was sold. “Hey There Delilah” written by Higgenson is pop at its best. As soon as the song comes on you find yourself relaxed, whatever part of you is remaining after the acoustic guitar intro, Higgenson mops up with his gentle vocals. You desperately want things to work out for Delilah and her man, or you desperately want to be her. To be the object of such desire is every woman’s dream. “Simple, sweet, and lovey-dovey”, Plain White T’s should stick to this lane and watch their fan base multiply.
