Like I Love You

Money and Celebrity is the third studio album by English trio The Subways, produced by Stephen Street. It was released on 18 September 2011.The album is assisted by fans with them providing photos and cover artwork to the band through their PledgeMusic project in which donations are made to the band for a charity and the donor receives anything from just the new CD to a 2 summer pass to every date the band perform.

History

During the period between the previous album All Or Nothing and the current one, the band created around 50 songs and decided against using them for the latest installment. Billy began writing for the album when he and some friends of his went to a local pub, they had just lost their jobs due to the current climate in the economy. Whilst they were drinking Billy found that he had no more money left for drinks and one of his friends said "Billy, we don't need money to have a good time" and from there Billy ran home and for the first time wrote the lyrics to a song before the music. From 12 September 2011, NME Magazine began streaming the album in its entirety. On 15 September, the band let PledgeMusic customers download their version of the album, posing the question of which track was to be the next single from the LP.
