| leoparadise (Utrecht, Netherlands) | Posted: Apr 11, 2006 - 11:20 This is the only Magic Numbers song (of three) played on RP that doesn't rip on this band in some way for being fat. What's up with all of the fat haters? This album is catchy and worth keeping on the playlist circuit, but nothing spectacular nor terrible. And now I've completed the fat reference trilogy by posting this for this song. Damn it. |

| rKokon (Colesville, MD) | Posted: Jan 09, 2006 - 07:32 Boring, repetitive. Rock, it ain't! AMG claims it is Adult Alternative Pop/ Rock Indie Rock . . . but to me it is only pop and barely good enough for that. Good pop would be Herman's Hermits. Are we boycotting melody in the Oughties? |
| laprincessa | Posted: Jan 09, 2006 - 07:32 This band sounds strikingly like The Polyphonic Spree* - but, unfortunately the Spree gets poo-pooed everytime I try to upload a song.  Wonder why that is?

I like the sound of this, but the obtrusive "die for you's" over and over bring my rating of this song down. One of the guitar riffs is vaguely reminiscent of Neil Young's Harvest Moon. |
| pixelgato (Spain) | Posted: Dec 11, 2005 - 07:29 I rather like this track but it sounds a lot like something else that I can't quite place. |

| rafterman (Scotland) | Posted: Dec 03, 2005 - 12:50 I actually quite like this. Unfortunately, the album is a bit hit and miss. Much better is the remarkably similar sounding band named 'Aberfeldy' - I'll upload a couple of tracks to LRC if not already there. |
| cwrm4 (Varies) | Posted: Dec 03, 2005 - 12:44 The problem with this band is that, at least on every song of theirs I've heard, they just don't know when to stop. If their songs were a quick and refreshing two and half minutes instead of 5 or 6 minutes, I'd rate 'em a lot higher. |
| Mindscrape (Boulder, CO) | Posted: Nov 18, 2005 - 21:27 I thought most of the album was actually pretty good. It's hard to resist indie-pop. Though they are definitely no Stars (pun not intended). |

I never bought the CD, but I can't help but like this song. I like the way the tempo changes. |
| Dejan (Belgrade, Serbia) | Posted: Nov 12, 2005 - 00:55 I saw them in Amsterdam in September. Good vibes live. The album is not 100% good, I agree. |
| Jerry_Scott (Stuttgart, Germany) | Posted: Nov 12, 2005 - 00:55 This is all over the place like a shotgun blast with no choke. Too weird for me, so if it's your cup of tea, you go dawg. |
| fureanbode (hungary) | Posted: Nov 12, 2005 - 00:50 That's a Pretenders riff, non? |

| pdhski (here) | Posted: Nov 01, 2005 - 11:40 Steals very heavily from The Cranberries - When You're Gone. |

I totally agree...Please stop |
| Jacksonstat (Columbus OH) | Posted: Oct 28, 2005 - 11:02 This is one of those rare instances where I actually lower my rating each time I hear this. I liked if the first time I heard it and now I find it quite annoying.  |

it's in itunes under "eclectic" I believe. I know 'cause I discoverd it while looking through the itunes library |

| buddy213 (Pasadena) | Posted: Sep 18, 2005 - 10:19 I need to upload some of 'The Incredible Moses Leroy' |
| MM_Prague (Prague) | Posted: Sep 14, 2005 - 08:05 Unfortunately the beginning of this song has been used in a commercial here in the Czech Republic by one of the local mobile phone operators...  |

| rluking (Underground) | Posted: Sep 09, 2005 - 13:59 Cool song.... But a BRILLIANT cross-fade, Bill! |
| th3boon (chicago) | Posted: Sep 06, 2005 - 09:32 wow, im pretty surprised at the overall rating, this song just keeps growing on me, very catchy and mellow. |
| foppy-knight (California) | Posted: Sep 06, 2005 - 09:27 GROOOVY! |
| Nero | Posted: Sep 03, 2005 - 13:23 Ok, my like of this song went up, then in the last several days it has started declining, after hearing it almost every single day on RP. |

Yep, me too!! Has a nice hook to it!  |
| Roverfish (Tucson, AZ - Thanks for visiting, please drive through!) | Posted: Aug 27, 2005 - 11:03 Reminds me of the similar doo-wop-esque Cranberries tune "When You're Gone". It's better than worse anyway...pretty good. |

Yeah I just had to up my rating from 3 to 5, it's not bad, but it is certainly just ok. |

| TurboBob (Austin, TX Baby!) | Posted: Aug 22, 2005 - 09:56 I glad people seem to be coming around on this one. You are right on with this, Bill. We need some more track to listen to though. So much freakin' fun. |
| tunedout | Posted: Aug 19, 2005 - 16:59 I love this stuff! A bit retro... |
| killahfunkadelic (Raleigh, NC) | Posted: Aug 19, 2005 - 16:56 the more I hear it, the more I REALLY dig it--its different---my wife pointed out that it really sounds like something David Lynch would use in one of his movies...sorta twin-peakish...I can totally see it. |
