This track is one of my old time favourites. It should be playing on at least one jukebox somewhere at all times.

This is probably some of the most original music I have heard. It has alot of recognizable elements that meld together really well. Blows me away everytime.

thanks mmi. oddly enough this was easiest song to write and record on the album. Usually everything I do IS a mixing nightmare though, ha

Very awesome. Quite the mixing challenge as well; artfully done.

Perfect track. And I agree to trasnmit, I thought I am listening to a very good early XTC song (when still a quartet with drummer)

Guest said

Guest said

Guest said

OMG, love your lyric! This is a treat for the ears.

Thanks so much, OGW! I'm familiar with Richman's better known songs, but you've reminded me I need dig deeper into his catalog.

Brilliant, so impressed. I don't suppose you ever listened to Johnathan Richman and the Modern Lovers from late 1970's, your music is kinda the same in that it's really quirky and off-beat and lyrically very clever :)

ha, thanks, SS... so, luxury and superior cornering at an affordable price?

Guest said

Car/sex metaphor? I've been likened to a Morris Minor, you know. This song is just too cool. Reminds me a little of early Adam Ant, only up to date and much better.

Guest said

Oh god, please be about me.

Guest said

Umm...fantastic.

Saved!
