This song brings back some great memories from my days of flipping sandwiches in college. Thanks for playing!

i really wanted these guys to be great but unfortunately, i found the rest of the album pretty underwhelming.

I bought the album. You're right. When I first heard this song, I thought: "this sounds like radiohead" (back then 'the bends' was the new release) and "they stole the opening riff from 'telephone and rubber band' by Penguin Cafe Orchestra. Unfortunately, after giving Spacehog plenty of time to show their true colors, they have proven to be a "one-hit wonder" group. edit: I just read the rest of the comments, and realize that I have nothing original to say, except to recommend the Penguin Cafe Orchestra to anyone who may be browsing the RP comments section. Check out "The sound of someone who is going away and it doesn't matter." |

Yes! I don't know that I have heard this song since high school over a decade ago. So many good memories tied to random little radio tid-bits that scatter across our lives. Funny how all those old days come rushing in the door from the intro alone. |

That very last swelling note makes me think it's about to segue into Yes - Roundabout.
Bill, is this possible to do?

Corpus Christi, TX, 1995. This song's on the radio during my drive in to flight school for one of my first fam flights in the T-34. As I take off, those dial tones are on repeat <all> in my mind. I'm thinking to myself, "oh no, not another one of those songs that gets stuck in my head and I hate it the rest of my life." Interestingly, the tune smooths out the entire flight, and I've liked it ever since.

Absolutely glam. The first time I heard this I thought it was David Bowie.  |

Fab guitar tone here. As Sir George Martin once said (in his case, about "Revolution"): "Sometimes there's nothing like NOISE!"

Terrific catchy tune produced by 4 Englishmen exiled in New York. Royston ended up with - and then without - Liv Tyler. Johnny Cragg drummed away for the Twenty-Twos for a while until they canned my friend and fell apart.
Now after an aborted almost Spacehog band called Arckid, the boys are back together again.
