The Official Charity Single: Invincible Girl.
Biography:
“As their oxymoronic name suggests, Bad Pollyanna represents a mix of both beauty and darkness. The
band explores and celebrates the duality of love, sex and the human condition
through music and art. Bad Pollyanna
believe you should be whoever you want to be and are proud to support the Sophie Lancaster Foundation in
conjunction with makeup brand Illamasqua.
With their debut album "Monstrous Child", vocalist Olivia
Hyde takes us the journey of a young woman kidnapped by a grieving scientist
who uses her to resurrect his deceased lover in the form of a doll - with
disastrous consequences. Having being transformed into a monster, she sets out
on a journey to discover the meaning of love, and the sweet yet bitter taste of
revenge!”
I couldn’t let this single go without saying a few words. Having
been at the hands of bullies most of my teenage life and narrowly averting
suicide myself have only had praise for Sylvia Lancaster whose battle to educate
people and change attitudes about hate crimes have been a long hard struggle
since her daughter Sophie was cruelly taken by vicious thugs in a park in Bacup
on 11th August 2007.
Her unprovoked death rocked the country and brought the Goth and
Metal community closer together. There isn’t a soul out there who hasn’t heard
of the name “Sophie Lancaster”
at least not in the Goth/Metal community and her name will never fade away,
because each year the memory of what happened on that fateful and tragic day in
August is just as raw as it was when it first appeared on our TV screens.
Sophie’s sweet little face smiles out amid a startling array of
red/black braided hair and numerous facial piercings.
Because of the sheer brutality in which Sophie's life was cruelly snuffed out, bands came together and created songs in her memory and Bad Pollyanna are the latest to create this beautifully poignant track entitled “Invincible Girl” The single can be purchased through the above

Bad Pollyanna's Debut Album
I have never had the chance to see Bad Pollyanna live but been a follower for some time after seeing
the bands video “Liquid Lover” as their video’s as well as tracks are spine
tingling, fresh and offer so much meaning. The tracks literally blossom with so
much polish it is hard not to get fully immersed.
The single “Invincible Girl”
is sung with the visions of Sophie Lancaster playing out in your head. It is so
hard not to show emotion whilst listening. Liv’s lilting voice is haunting and
lingers over the ears as the piano melody strikes a chord in your heart and will
forever leaving its mark, just as Sophie has and it’s a very fitting tribute to
one Invincible girl!
This is one superb track that everyone should hear and most of all
buy as the monies collected are going to one of the best causes ever. Remember:
Stamp Out Prejudice, Hate & Intolerance Everywhere.
We shall never forget!
