With their second Greatest Hits album just around the corner, the first offering comes to us in the form of Lighthouse, written by none other than Take That’s Gary Barlow.

It’s another ballad, which seems to be more and more common for the group. With lines such as “You’re the light in the dark/The seat in the park/You’re the lighthouse that I need” , you can’t help thinking that they could have been lines pulled straight from a Valentine’s card. This is possibly the last single that the lads may release seeing as they have recently announced that they are going to be splitting after 14 years together. So maybe the lyrics are a bit more poignant as in a sense could be seen a thank you type song to the fans as well.

If you like your soppy ballad, this is for you. Probably a perfect bow out tune.

Rating: 3/5
