Singer-songwriter Jamie Bosanko brings a sharply shaped, effectively sounding in-your-face accidental punk song “Life Will Do” into your ears. It might have been a derivative from the rest of his work, but the song remained warm and passionate, cynical and sentimental—everything that made Bosanko’s music what it is. Hailing from the small but busy port town of Barrow-in-Furness, life is tangled up with the rough but immersive seaside scenery, sandwiched between miles of beaches and lake districts. Materialism and the modern way of life are being put into perspective.

In “Life Will Do,” Bosanko reflects on the wasted energy of chasing a modern lifestyle, obsession over trends and being hip, however, so disconnected from one’s roots. “Life Will Do” urges listeners to take a step back. What they’ll discover is a piece of the sky they’ve always had but long failed to notice.

Perhaps Bosanko didn’t imagine the two-minute banger taking its shape in a punk rock confrontation, but the energy and the expression that naturally fused into the song burst from speakers into listeners’ ears. Shouting at the top of his lungs, Bosanko’s to-the-point lyrics carry the weight and power to shake awake a drifting soul. In the collage of imageries surrounding the things one wants in life, the loud and sharp single is simply something we all need to hear.

Perhaps the message just needs to be screamed out, punched through and carved into the minds of bewitched sleepwalkers. “Life Will Do” is a wake-up call, with all the harshness, nutrients, heart and compassion.
