This song is EPIC and I hope you'll think LAST RITE is too when you get a chance to read it. It's the culmination of Frannie, Luc and Gabe's struggle, and all Heaven's wrath rains down as all Hell breaks loose. The lyrics of this song totally tell Frannie, Luc and Gabe's story. (I swear the band must have hacked into my email or something!)
The song is War by Poets of the Fall, and here it is.
*note: Some of the lyrics near the end of this vid aren't quite right, but...
If you have not heard of this band, you must check them out. I love this song sooo much I'm giving a buttload of extra entries into this contest if you download this song from any legal music site.
So, the contest...
If you'd like a chance at your very own signed ARC of Last Rite, here's your chance to win one. Because I love you, I'll also throw in a signed copy of the amazing John Green's The Fault in Our Stars--which, btw, is still sitting on top of the NYT bestseller list. (You thought you were going to be able to win the real John Green, didn't you? Admit it ;p) A runner up will receive a signed copy of Original Sin.
To enter, all you have to do is comment below and tell me any lyric (one full line) from the Poets of the Fall video embedded above. If you have a favorite, pick that =) You must be 13 or older to enter. Extra entries can be accumulated as follows:

Add up your points in your comment, please, because my math sucks. Also, leave me a way to contact you if you WIN! Contest closes Friday March 23rd at 12 noon, PST. Winners will be chosen by the randomizer and posted here that afternoon. There will be a new contest for signed copies of Last Rite and other signed books (think Holly Black, Marie Lu, Beth Revis) every Monday between now and May 7th, so don't forget to check back every Monday to enter!
Thanks so much for the giveaway! :)

I loved the verse: When I thought that I fought this war alone
ReplyDeleteYou were there by my side on the frontline
When I thought that I fought without a cause
You gave me a reason to try
It's what I hope for, so it really spoke to me.

This song is quite epic. I can see why you like it. Several lines resonated with me, including:
ReplyDelete"White crippled wings beating the sky."
"And we fought to believe the impossible."
"And I've only got my brittle bones to break the fall."

This line captured me from the second that I heard/saw it. To me, it's the most evocative line in the entire song (but I'm biased towards "visuals" and this makes a great one): "White crippled wings beating the sky"
