Okay. Please, then, upload your work so we can all hear something that isn't, well, crap. I'm sure you have loads of material. And send me a message via RP so I won't miss it, okay? Thanks.

Really!

Love the psychedelia.

Tame Impala are coming to Richmond Va next month.

Because of RP introducing them to me I plan on attending.

Lacks form....form is very important...dont mean formulaic, but some symmetry or something...

Saw them jam on Jimmy Fallon a couple nights ago...they had to play a shortened version of Elephant (^%^%&$ obnoxious commercial-glutted network policies nowadays!) but wow, they looked mighty cool...
I still love this, my original exposure to them...

They're on tour in North America right now. The AMG write-up says " They were as likely to be channeling the Nazz as the Jimi Hendrix Experience." That's it! Particularly this song, the vocals are Nazz! No wonder I like it!

Being a coccyx, I guess you should know.

Cool band with a retro-sound - were on my 2012 Lolla must see list, but the torrential downpour and lightening got in the way

Somewhat over-influenced by the Beatles methinks ... Zzzzz

Yeah? I Made a brew, baked a cake, completed The Times crossword, solved the Rubik's Cube 7 times, learned how to speak Innuit, rebuilt the engine of my Ford Capri, came back in with a design for a pepetual motion machine and it'd only just finished!

Wait a minute!

Hold on....

You rebuilt the engine of a Ford Capri? No way!

Let's see - so far there are 100 comments for this song. Let me think of an observation that not one of the previous posts has mentioned: um, it sounds strangely reminiscent of The Beatles.

Good tune, by the way.

Such classic, real-life stuff, and it doesn't get any more hip than the music these guys weave behind it... I love that I heard this here, and that I am hearing it here now...

You gorgot the great follow-up line: "to her I must seem like a friend in need." Or words to that effect.

Great tune.

Indeed. Is that John Lennon reincarnated?

I like this, but the overall phase shifter effect is a bit annoying. I really like the bass part and atmospheric guitar mutterings.
