Just groove on the baseline, and you have yourself a nice record...just try and stop from dancing! Turn it UPPPPPPP! and you will feel the magic of this ditty

always liked that bass line

this song is a 10 - did Spacehog make anything else anywhere near as good as this?

That is only bad if you didn't grow up in the 70's. I did, and that makes this one of my favorite songs EVER. EH. VER.

This song reminds me of my first summer job...
listening to the radio in the old beater work truck, on the banks of Old Hickory Lake in Tennessee.

You call that rock! pffffffff, it sounds like a seventies hair-band!!!!

This is one of those songs that makes RP such a special place -- and a place that, having visited, changes one forever. Rock on, Bill-san!

They didn't credit Penguin Cafe, but they absolutely "borrowed" from them. Perhaps they didn't think anyone would make the connection...

I must be the geek who actually liked the whole album

I finally heard their first CD a few months ago. Pretty damn good. Too bad they couldn't keep the momentum.

Thank you for doing the work for the rest of us. This group is a great segue from Steve Earle, because it is only slightly more tuneful and the nasal "singing" is only slightly better. And again, isn't it funny how so often the indecipherable lyrics are hardly worth reading except as oddities of a possibly drug-induced haze. Sorry, folks, now I will be quiet till I hear something I like.

Always liked this. Never understood what he was saying though, so I decided to look up the lyrics just now.

No wonder...

"Then all is well and well was all for all..."

"We love the all the all of you..."

What the hell is that? Worst lyrical grammar ever.

ah, takes me back.

Wasn;t this used in a film - Talk Radio was it? Was a quality film - jeez - showing me age now!

Now here's a blast from the past. Some songs should be heralded for their pure 'one hit wonder' beauty.

Speaking of place people live who listen to RP. The two places I have lived by choice (Austin, TX and Seattle, WA) have by far the highest listening rate that I have seen...Bill if you get the chance to put together the statistics that would be interesting. Anyway the two cities are so similar and beautiful. Sweet so that comment had no point, but thanks for reading those of yall who took the time.

Fantastic song, wish they had more stuff.

Make that four... and counting. I've noticed quite a few Columbus listeners as of late. Don't know what I did before RP!

Great song, great album. So unashamedly glam.

Annoying back then, annoying now...

This sounds more than a little bit like White Witch. Was there a connection there, or am I completely off base?

Most excellent!

I've heard this on CD101-an Andyman favorite, methinks. One-hit wonder. One of them married Steven Tyler's other daughter...

the first band to come to mind when I think of 90's One Hit Wonders... It is indeed a good song. However the album is absolutely terrible. I rarely use cd exchanges but I felt like I was owed something after being duped into buying it.

CD101 ref... I like it.

Columbus radio is 99% garbage... maybe that is why three of us locals are listening to RP.
