So... that harmonic on the last beat before the first verse... Watch out for that puppy. If you've got headphones on that might be a little like an ice pick into your skull. I didn't plan it, I just did it.

Overall this one seems okay to me. The performance is pretty awful, but this song is all right. I don't like the transition from the first hook into the first verse. It feels awkward, but the second time seems better. Weird. Is it just a…

Yet another big dumb rocker, but this one I kinda like. I think it's the hyper active chorus, even though I could barely sing it without the wheels coming off the bus.
I have no idea what the lyrics are about. None at all.

I remember this one came out of being mildly irked how many waltz-rhythm pop and alternative songs had "waltz" in the title. Why never a gavotte? A sarabande?
