Poll: Should Hurts be bloody getting on with it or what

  • August 15, 2012
  • Popjustice

In 2000-and-whenever-it-was Hurts delivered a pop­cul­tural product of extremely high quality in the shape of their debut album 'Happiness'.

Tunes. Cheekbones. Haircuts. They had it all.

Since then they have been pissing about doing live shows, 'going quiet' etc. Obviously they have been recording their second album which is all very well but if some tunes are ready to be performed live, like this new one they did in Hungary a few days ago…

…can't they just chuck the proper versions online?

COME ON CHAPS, IT'S 2012.

And so we ask:

[poll id="5"]

Please use your vote wisely. Remember, pop­demo­cracy is a right, not a privilege.
