Playing with Fire<\/strong><\/p>\n

As the first round of Anthem promotion takes a short rest, the eyes of Hanson fans move to Tulsa where the MOE event will be held next weekend.\u00a0Some will meet up with friends that they have known for 16 years or even longer and some will be meeting new friends for the first time. Talk will be of the music, a 21st<\/sup> birthday celebration and the events of the world tour.<\/p>\n

Whilst in Tulsa, fans have a chance to develop a broader understanding of what makes the band tick, what their everyday life looks like and what defines them as Tulsans and Oklahomans.<\/p>\n

Most people, who follow the band, know that for Isaac at least, basketball is one of those defining things. And whilst over the years, Hanson have sung their National Anthem at many major events, some, like the one linked below, may have special significance.<\/p>\n

May 2012, Hanson sings the National Anthem at the OKC Thunder vs. San Antonia Spurs game http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ya6TCeonQ3I<\/a><\/p>\n

So the news last week that Fox Sports was using songs from Anthem \u2013 Fired up<\/em> and You Can’t Stop Us<\/em> Now<\/em>, for its coverage of OKC Thunder games, came as an acknowledgment of the devotion of Hanson and the gutsy attitude of their new music.<\/p>\n

https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=v8pNYzj4gik<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0Fired Up <\/em>video and song for OKC Thunder Fox Sports<\/p>\n

\"live_12\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The more the music is heard \u2013 the gutsier it seems.<\/p>\n

Just as a National Anthem defines or expresses something particular to a country, so this Anthem of Hanson\u2019s must surely add more clarity to understanding this band.<\/p>\n

Although this side of the album release much is still speculation and conjecture, some people may turn to sources of possible inspiration for Hanson, especially as aspects of the music and the art work tease and mystify just a little.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To review a previous suggestion, Ayn Rand\u2019s book \u201cAnthem\u201d could hold a clue for the curious.<\/p>\n

The book is set in a future world, where the needs of the individual are subjugated to the needs of the community. No one is valued as themselves and the committee rules.<\/p>\n

The protagonist is 21 years old and through a sequence of events he discovers electricity and makes light, he plays with fire and appreciates the effect of lightning in a new way. He falls in love and realises that human passion has beauty. He challenges the status quo and decides to leave behind a system that is decrepit and without compassion. He names himself Prometheus, and his lover calls him The Unconquered.\u00a0Ultimately the story is about finding freedom as an individual in a collective world, where originality is perceived as dangerous. It is about discovery, the nature and power of self belief and commitment to a different sort of future.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

While waiting for Anthem to be released and with just a few teasers to entice, there can\u2019t be any harm in looking for connections. If Hanson\u2019s music echoes any of these themes it will continue to define the band as bold, imaginative, rooted in values that last, eager to grow and change and dedicated to giving their all and their best.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There will be plenty to sing and even more to sing about.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
