October Songaday: Day 7 (The Format - If Work Permits)

DAY SEVEN: THE FORMAT - IF WORK PERMITS

Hey look, it's not video game music! Found this through the now-defunct Sheezy Radio ran through Sheezyart.com (also now defunct - well, it isn't, but it might as well be given the people there and news activity). I really like the guy's voice, and the balance they put on vocals, acoustic, and electric. Honestly, I don't think it's matched by any of the band's other songs.
The Format was several people, but the main name there for me is Nate Ruess, the vocalist. It's pretty distinctive. Since The Format ended, Nate has gone on to create and lead fun., a band with some more pop-leanings (who also did the song Some Nights, which I do like, aside from a couple flaws).

Honestly, that's all I've got to say.
