RP is getting harder to listen to as all-day background music.

Pretty funny. The Big Beat goes on. Laswell-ish beneath the sugary vocal. Oddness achieved with the vaguely Islamic vocal interspersed.

Bill did; that's why they're back-to-back.

Am I in a lift? An early 90's promo video? So confused.

  Yes, I definitely hear the resemblance.  I'm only person I know who's heard of both of these bands — I even have & still listen to One Dove's "Morning Dove White cd which I bought when it came out in the 90s.  I never knew about Single Gun Theory though until I started listening to Radio Paradise around 2002 or so.  {#Bounce}

Banarama voices, which actually, I find nice, but I think it's the bass line that makes this song so appealling.

Sounded like old Madonna to me. Got my attention enough to switch to last.fm.

I've become a Single Gun Theory convert, even though they only have two good CD's. Fun to listen to, easy on the ears.

Thanks for playing Single Gun Theory, despite there being much better tracks of theirs to choose from.



Try Strawpeople (from New Zealand), if you liked this band.

I agree with you on both counts. Both songs use similar themes, but "From a Million Miles" does it better.

Add my vote to "sounds like One Dove"! And One Dove's CD *would* be perfect Radio Paradise fodder.

Actually, One Dove sounds like Single Gun Theory and One Dove is doing the channeling ... SGT's first record came out in 1987, this came out in 1991, while One Dove is from 1993.

One Dove probably bought the album and were inspired to create something "original" although I do think they sound more like Saint Etienne than these guys

There's something completely wrong with a handle such as yours expressing satisfaction about a group called Single Gun Theory.

can't quite put my finger on it?

I'm a big fan of One Dove and is the first thing I thought of after hearing this. RP has one (click here) of their songs, but never played as of now. Bill care to give it a try?

One Dove friggin' rocks. It took me forever to track down their album. Listen to Dot Allison solo!

Jaqui Hunt from SGT sings on Delerium albums a lot.

I think it sounds like Tanita Tikaram (sp?)...can't remember the name of the song, but it's very similar. This is good. Would like to hear more SGT.
