I blame it on myself 'cos i can't keep anything down, anything down,
However hard i do try,
So talk amongst yourselves while i try to figure it out, figure it out.
I'll let you know in my time.
And there's nothing to say 'cos i won't go through it.
And there's nothing to do 'till i put myself up to it.

| Stefen (West Hollywood, CA) | Posted: Sep 08, 2010 - 16:40 So there's finally a song where a puking emoticon would fit the lyrics, and no one posts it. |

| Pyro | Posted: Nov 13, 2008 - 12:33 Sounds like Tangerine Dream backing up nice vocals!! |
| pianocomposer (Springfield) | Posted: Sep 19, 2008 - 22:59 This is such an unlikely song to make my "favorite of the week". This gets a 10. I'm even gonna request a replay from bill. Yay |

| alux (atop the pyramid) | Posted: Mar 21, 2008 - 16:27 Nifty tune, but still belongs in the Bad Album Cover Hall of Fame. Filed under "seemed like a good idea at the time". |

| Krispian (Vancouver, BC) | Posted: Oct 16, 2007 - 12:56 love, love, LOVING this song right now! I like how this band touts themselves as a cross between Depeche Mode and Hall & Oates. What a combo! |
| squidish (Honk if you hate this war!) | Posted: Oct 16, 2007 - 12:56 Yeow! Is that a big bruise on that foot? She must have kicked the habit's ass! |

| passsion8 (over the hills and far away) | Posted: Mar 10, 2007 - 15:16 Sounds similar to: I'm alone sitting with my empty glass my four walls follow me through my past I was on a Paris train I emerged in London rain and you were waiting there swimming through apologies |

I thought it referred to the annual horse race at Aintree and was all about to come out with rash puns about falling at the first, etc. It's sort of ok, but unremarkable - as the other poster said, it starts off fizzy then just, well, fizzles damply. A 4. |
