Love World Party. And all the references to the Stones are dead-on. It wasn't an accident.

I remember back in the day an interview with him where he said his "genre" is 60's music because that's what he likes and he's not apologizing for it. He was used to hearing criticism for it.

Won't you show me something true today?

Amazing how some songs just stand up even after 20 years.

No, seriously, he wants his voice back because he can no longer carry a tune. Jagger, that is.

It's just a jump to the left, and then a step to the right.

Wallinger Rocks!

Yeah, I come back to this album a whole lot myself. Definitely worth checking out.

Songs like this always make me curious as to how much a band has to pay to another band that they make a conscious reference to.. and if they do pay them for borrowing the riff or whatever, why bother do it when it its going to cost you hard cash? Or are they all just good mates?

EDIT: And it would appear that many others do too, now that I've backscrolled and read all of the comments for this song.

Never fails, that first chord always makes me think it's going to be "Island Girl." Thankfully, it's this instead! LOVE it!{#Daisy}

This song never fails to make me want to get up and just dance because I'm alive. It appeals equally to my inner cynic and my inner hippie, heh. Love the gradual crescendo at "And I know I'm not alone..."

"Whoo - Whoos" sound very much like The Stones "Sympathy for the Devil!"
