| mtron | Posted: May 01, 2011 - 22:36 Whoa! I haven't heard these guys in years! Awesome band, excellent song, and it's great to hear them on RP! |

| mapman | Posted: Jan 27, 2011 - 13:24 That would be 2. These guys make me dizzy! Rock on! |

I've had a couple of artists come back on comments I've made, which luckily were complimentary :). Just obey the golden rule of online fora and you'll be ok: never say behind the keyboard what you wouldn't say to someone face to face. Makes for a civilised discussion board too. Nice rocky-retro number this - 7 from the Nottingham jury. An excellent rule to follow! Even without the keyboard. |

It did to me, too, at first - then it started to sound a little like a less-frenzied Lindsey Buckingham. And then I finally just gave up and fell into the song. I really, REALLY like it!!! |
| rtkmusic (SoCal) | Posted: May 18, 2010 - 12:39 very nice power pop...well done! |
| sirdroseph (Tokyo) | Posted: May 18, 2010 - 12:38 This song is really cheesy, I like it! |
| spigolli (Peachtree City, GA, USA) | Posted: May 18, 2010 - 12:37 Nice garage band sound, I bet they sound great live. |

| to_the_eleven (the groove) | Posted: Feb 12, 2010 - 13:59 Was expecting them to sound like the Waylin' Jennies not the Connells. |
| crockydile (Outer Spiral Arm, Milky Way) | Posted: Feb 12, 2010 - 13:59 Ha. That's exactly what I gave this song. Self-fulfilling prophecy? |
| (former member) (hotel in Las Vegas) | Posted: Nov 10, 2009 - 08:46 I like it— it's groovy... |

| iscoot4peace | Posted: Sep 08, 2009 - 07:53 I like the song...but terribly amatuerish album cover. Did somebody in the band let their neice or nephew do it in art class? Tragic. |

| lmic (Narrow Minded Couch Potato) | Posted: May 04, 2009 - 15:25 REM jangly guitar + Fleetwod Mac vocals? |

| (former member) (hotel in Las Vegas) | Posted: May 04, 2009 - 15:23 This rocks... |
| Hannio (Austin, TX) | Posted: Mar 02, 2009 - 13:48 I like it. You can dance to it. A frenetic dance, maybe. |

| n4ku (Lex Vegas) | Posted: Mar 02, 2009 - 13:48 A well crafted, and quite likable, pop song. 7 |
| kcar | Posted: Jan 30, 2009 - 00:12 This is great! Sounds like early-mid 80s power pop. REM? Nooo... |
| element1 (boulder, co) | Posted: Aug 01, 2006 - 22:12 Just changed from 7 to 6. I mean, it's really just okay. Eh? |

| horstman | Posted: Jun 04, 2006 - 08:42 Just average (5). Sounds like so many other bands but not enough like themselves. First sign of demise-lack of originality. I don't hear REM or the Ramones but to each their own. That said, not a bad song and a welcome (if played rarely) addition to this lovely little radio station high in the mountains of CA. |

| Coding_Jester (Long way from Home) | Posted: Jun 04, 2006 - 08:32 This is good - but quite like Carrie Dunno if anyone knows them? |
| jlind (Chicago, IL) | Posted: May 20, 2006 - 18:28 Is this about talking his gf into getting an abortion? |

I think this is the only power pop song allowed to be played on Paradise. It sure sounds good! Just think if they played more. |

| wade44 (2900 Km East of Paradise, CA) | Posted: Apr 04, 2006 - 15:58 I like their sound, but not the lyrics of this particular song. Pretty weak. I'd like to hear some of their other songs. Like the guitar in this one... |
| huebdoo | Posted: Apr 04, 2006 - 15:56 Holy Rhyming couplets bat-man Its like the Bryan Adams school of song writing I have a say I got some hay dad says get a job He says Im just a slob Chorus Nananana |
| KevinM (Long Beach, Ca) | Posted: Mar 23, 2006 - 08:12 One of the band members was browsing these comments recently and sent me an e-mail. Pretty cool |
| hippiechick | Posted: Mar 23, 2006 - 08:12 Sounds a little to me like REO Speedwagon! |
