The Script’s gift for writing songs rich with heady emotions and ever bigger melodies has enamoured fans all over the world, leading to a catalogue of global hits such as ‘Hall of Fame’, ‘The Man Who Can’t Be Moved’ and ‘Breakeven’.
Now, The Script’s 8th studio album sees Danny O’Donoghue reunited with songwriting partners Andrew Frampton and Steve Kipner, hit-machine songwriters with whom he and Mark Sheehan wrote a brace of The Script’s best known songs including ‘Breakeven’ and ‘The Man Who Can't Be Moved’ plus producer/songwriter Jimbo Barry (‘Hall of Fame’, ‘Superheroes’, ‘The Last Time’).
Lead track ‘Man In The Arena’ is a rousing, defiant anthem complete with stirring martial drumbeats that draws on all the band's experiences and worldwide successes over the last two decades, cementing their status as surefire pop rock giants.
As their passionate, dedicated fanbase know all too well, The Script also have that crucial thing: real, emotional, soul-deep connection. This is the animating, uniting idea at the heart of The User’s Guide to Being Human, what matters above all else in music, in life, in The Script. Because after all, “tell me what the hell we're doing if we're not human beings being human”.
