the main melodic theme is a ripoff of Led Zepplin- forget the name of the song

I like this band a lot, but this tune is a bit smarmy.

Nobody really needs super grass,
avarage homegrown does the job!
But even supergrass cannot help this boring piece!

Another song that borrows the melody of Going to California. The PJ song is Given to Fly.
Nothing wrong with that — steal from the best - good tune.

After many years of spreading global bonhomie, releasing a collection of classic singles and six great studio albums, SUPERGRASS announce that they have split due to the 17 year itch. The group will play 4 farewell shows in June, starting at Glasgow Barrowlands on June 8 and ending with their final ever show in Paris on June 11. The group formed in 1993 and their first single, the era-defining “Caught By The Fuzz”, was released in 1994; since then they have gone on to carve their totally idiosyncratic and not insubstantial niche in rock music over six studio albums and some of the punchiest singles of our time. The group said today: “Thanks to everyone who has supported us over the years. We still love each other but, cliché notwithstanding​,​ musical differences have led to us moving on and of course we all wish each other well in the future” Read more:http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendId=3654248&blogId=532895778#ixzz0yBd3uVwi |

Supergrass brings it. Not sure what "it" is, but it's the $hit.

No. Late 60s psychedelic Beatles. Sheer genius. |

sounds a little "Ween"ish, huh. This is a good album that I wouldn't have purchased if I hadn't heard 'em on RP. |
