Colours Are Brighter

Colours Are Brighter is a charity record which was released on Rough Trade Records on 16 October 2006, all proceeds going to Save the Children. The CD features 13 songs aimed at children, by some of the UK's biggest indie pop bands, and was released with a set price of £9.99. Currently the album is not available to purchase on iTunes, but six songs are available on iTunes from separate albums. They are Skeleton Bang, David Wainwright’s Feet, The Monkeys Are Breaking Out The Zoo, Mud and The Big Ol Bug Is The New Baby Now. The Snow Patrol version of I Am An Astronaut is not available from iTunes, but other versions are, mostly from the 80s. The only songs not on YouTube are Our Dog Is Getting Older Now, Tidy Up and Night Baking, however links to the former two songs are below. Only Night Baking does not exist anywhere on the internet - even the lyric websites have uploaded words to Naive (The Kooks) instead of the correct ones. Sadly, the only way to hear Night Baking as of now is to buy the album.
