music genre - indie 
indie music isn't a definite style of music, but most indie bands are influenced by each other causing a similar sound. the sound is melodic, the instruments are simple but well textured. usually includes a simple but original guitar riff, another guitar riff layered to complement it, bass doing the same, simple drum beat (but fitting the song well) either a keyboard or violin or something to bring out the underlying melody, and soft vocals, usually well harmonised. the lyrics are powerfully emotional (but not whiney). they spark emotion but they don't talk about how their lives suck (very tasteful)

The Mirror being owned by Reach plc means it has a photo-rich tabloid format that has consistently stressed sensational, human-interest, and personal types of stories. Its politically independent stance has enabled it to adopt a 'common man versus bureaucracy' approach to many stories.
