Happy happy happy - takes me back to memory land...

This song is good for the ears...



 

Fantastic Byrdsy-Beatles jangly sound!!! 

yeah!! Robyn always a joy to hear.

I'm surprised that RP doesn't play anything from his recent albums with The Venus 3. They feature some of his best songs ever: NY Doll, Star of Venus, Ordinary Millionaire (with Johnny Marr) and many others.

Robyn has stated that he wrote this song for The Bangles. I can hear it!

THIS NEEDS TO BE PLAYED DAILY !!!
BILL, MAKE IT HAPPEN!

It's a silly, happy, upbeat tune and I like it too.

....well I love it, Bill.

HFS was so good, still miss it today.

I've had a terrible day.
I've even had a terrible week.
My year has not been the best
But this tune always makes me feel better.

Come on folks, don't be too critical, smile!!

Wow that playlist just came off the rails with this song.

Volume had been cranked, now its at a whisper to save everyone the embarrassment of listening to this song. 

Miserable

i repeat myself: one of RHs really mediocre songs, and from his only album which is NOT worth buying!
i really cannot understand why this one is played here!
there are more than enough really good hitchcock songs, and more than a handful absolutely adorable masterpieces. in any case more than enough to choose a better example of robyn.

I wouldn't want to listen to this every day but it's a great little tune.

(and I did buy this when it first came out) 

in my opinion, this is one of robyns really mediocre efforts. giving the fact that there are easily more than 100 really great songs from him i wonder how difficult it might have been to choose this one for RP.

I like the bits where he doesn't sing. 

Inside my light bulb grew a small child that had thoughts of mustard upon squid architects of genius magnitudes.

One of the best comp CDs I ever bought had this song on it.

Best of MTV's 120 minutes, Vol. 1

Not a bad song on that CD, IMO.

great I saw Robyn a few years ago, great gig, nice fellas, hung around afterwards to chat and the like, Peter Buck was playing guitar there too, good lads.

  Is there a rating below 1.  Please make it stop. Hitchcock made plenty of good music, why this? Excelsior wrote: 

on the subject of Balloon man

One day an inflatable boy is in his inflatable school, when his inflatable teacher blames him for another inflatable students rude noises. He is sent to the inflatable headmaster, after a long telling off from the inflatable headmaster the inflatable boy has had enough. He pulls out a pin and sticks it in the inflatable headmaster. He then runs out, just as he is leaving he thinks 'I hate school' and sticks the pin in his inflatable school. When he gets back to his inflatable house he runs up the inflatable stairs and straight into his inflatable bedroom. Thinking of what he has done the boy has had enough, he can't bear to face the consequences and proceeds to stick the pin in himself.

The next day the inflatable boy awakes in the inflatable hospital, lying in the next inflatable bed is the inflatable headmaster. And with a disappointed look on his face the headmaster turns and says 'Son, not only have you let me down, you've let the school down and you've let yourself down'

Why not

But not again for awhile, k?
