Perhaps you are more acquainted with Donny Osmond's work than I am (particularly the B-sides), but I don't remember him doing anything that sounded anything like this.  I suppose it's all in the ear of the listener.
 

He did this on his variety show.  I think it was the episode with Don Knotts.

Not the best band to come out of Glasgow(ish) by a long stretch (Orange Juice, Jesus & Mary Chain, Belle & Sebastian, Blue Nile, Franz Ferdinand, Beta Band, Teenage Fanclub, Camera Obscura, Mogwai) but the flashbacks make me smile. {#Angel}

It's like some smarmy 1970's Donny Osmand B-side.  This song has to go.

And I couldn't disagree more! Bought the album based on hearing this, and it's grown, albeit slowly, to be one of my favourites. The title track is awesome, shame it's not on the playlist here...

It occurs to me that this could be a KD Lang song.  You could just drop her vocals in there.  I love it, by the way.

I got the CD largely based on hearing this song. The CD is very good, and this band is very, very good.

I alwasy forget that the Trash Can Sinatras are not a punk band. The name must bring back My Way as done by the Sid Vicious or something. RP needs some punk.

I agree. I have all four TCS albums, and there are plenty of other great songs; in fact the two that get played here are nowhere near the band's best.

Dude's voice is reminiscent of Moz.  Guitar style is very Marr as well.

So I like it....  derivative or not.
