Fireflies in June covered one of my favourite songs If It Means A Lot to You by A Day to Remember. Before I even heard their version of this song my initial reaction was “who do these people think they are thinking they can cover a band as amazing as A Day to Remember?” Then, I cleared my mind and listened to it openly. At first, I was mystified by the trance/electronic introduction seeing as how ADTR has a heavier tone to their music. The beats they interlaced into the background music managed to keep the original sound but at the same time mask it to mystify the listener. It seemed as though it was a completely different song, merely with subtle familiarizing clues. "Tell me something sweet to get me by".
Considering it was a cover, I give Fireflies in June 3.7 sexploding ears out of 5.
