this is some great UK acoustic pop music, great arrangments, catchy and smart lyrics, amazing production, I always loved your approach and this only strengthened my admiration, I love popular accesible fun intelligent music and this is a great exemple of that.

Nice catchy little tune you have here. Love the lyrics, the delivery has that modern English approach. I enjoyed this one, a very good listen well done

Richard, this is a nice song and a great mix. Everything is so well balanced, guitars, rhythm and keyboard fill-ins. I hear a little bit of America (the famous pop-folk-rock group) in the opening chords and then glimpses of Pet Shop Boys throughout the melody & vocals. Lastly, a few chord changes carry the High Llamas' feel (as usual, ha?) Overall, this is definitely a brilliant track. Cheers / Mike

YOU'VE BECOME AN EXPERT IN THIS KINA RYTHM. BIG IMPROVEMENT IN THE VOICE TAKE, GOOD IDEA OF THE DOUBLED VOICE MIX. THERE'S SOMETHING HERE FROM THE LATE EDWYN COLLINS'S ORANGE JUICE. CHEERS

Why do I think I have heard this before? Love that matter of fact English tone of the vocals nicely nestled in a simple chugging chordal/rhythm thingy. ftlpope

Very nice!! I love the guitar, and the arrangement works very well, some very nice little touches in there. Very catchy tune too! Enjoyed the listen!

Reminds me quite a bit of Michael Franks' music (not sure if he's still playing any more). With an upbeat vibe and the chord progressions the song is very well done. Your vocals and lyrics work real well with the acoustic backbone. Smart design and execution. Enjoyable listen Richard! ..Blake

Nice sounding acoustic! Really enjoyed the vocal delivery! Good work!
