 Is it just me? These beginning riffs had me half expected this to be "18 and Life" by Skidrow. Ha!

Uh...this is a cool tune and I really like the production of it. The album art cover is intriguing too.

You got that right! Vapen & Ammunition is another good album by Kent.

More incessant whining. I got bored with this kind of crap back in the 90's. And Kent definitely has much better offerings than this drivel.

i saw these guys at a small festival in nashville many years ago.
i liked them at the time. i loved Isola. i kinda fell off the boat though. i can still give them a listen if they pop up on shuffle, but i don't seek it out anymore.

I've had the beginning of this song as my cellphone ringtone for so long that I wondered why my phone was ringing with such a high-quality rendition for a few seconds...

big fan of kent, but have to agree this is one of their more 'bland' songs... makes me feel kent are misrepresented on RP! there's a couple of (imho) better tracks on the LRC at the moment, so hopefully they'll make it to the playlist...

It's okay. But it doesn't half remind me of Take That's 'Patience'
Now there would be an RP cross-over record...

I was like "hm, this sounds like Kent in English." I'm so used to the Swedish version, but this is so great to hear on RP. So eclectic. Kent is amazing

Very sneaky, Sis!

Going from Stewart Copeland (aka Klark Kent) to Kent... very clever!

Beggers can't be choosers besides RP's rating scale only goes up to ten, so if it were in Swedish, therefore better :p I couldn't rate it higher anyway

Thanks RP for playing it!Kent is one of my favourites bands!I recommend everybody to listen them in Swedish(they sound much better!)and I also recommend their last cd "Du och jag döden"(the best I've heard in very long time.

Nice. Seems we're getting some decent pop music out of Sweden lately. Sometimes they suffer from a bit of Mentos Syndrome, but Jeez they're better than a lot of US bands on Top 40 these days. Ditto below...play something in Swedish. We listen to all these other trax in Spanish and Swahili, why not?

If you wouldn't mind some Swedish lyrics, try one of the "hits" off their last album, "Vapen och Ammunition" . One of their best albums.

I don't agree really, as far as i'm concerned the lyrics are about domestic violence.
