I've heard the song earlier on. It's ok, but for me really nothing special at all. It reminds me a bit of some of the lesser songs on HT. I won't say it's a bad song, it's reasonable for me, but again certainly nothing special. I have the same problem with it as with the song backbone, it sounds a bit monotonous to me. What I do like is that the balance between voice and guitars seems a bit better again, voice is not so much on in the foreground as it has been on quite some of the later work. Still no judgement of the album though, I've only heard two songs and that's not enough to go by. I heard two Rossi-Edwards compositions now but am curious to hear the Rossi-Young and Rossi-Bown compositions.

What’s with the cowbell at the beginning?Its ok but very flat sounding production.It could possibly be one of the better things since HT,but is light years away from anything the real Quo would have recorded Cheers Just remind me, when you say real Quo are we talking 1981 and before?

Oddly enough the chorus keeps getting stuck in my ear, even several days after hearing it last.
I don't think it's catchy enough to trouble the charts, though. Just saying.

Must be, the “ real Quo “ recorded classics such as Baby Boy, Let’s Ride, Stones etc..:-)

I'm the same... once I heard that chorus I was hearing it for days. I'm the same, the chorus doesn't sound catchy but it must be! I like it, perhaps a bit ordinary sounding for a single? That's why I didn't listen to Francis recent solo album. It will have been filled with infectious melodies I couldn't get out of my head, but with country pop songs I dont like When Francis likes something there's always something about it. He certainly does have an ear for melody

I mean Let's Ride is a track I enjoy but a Rock classic is stretching it a tad.

I better join the in crowd and toss some more negativity into the mix. I was VERY disappointed that the Nolans on backing vocals were dropped from the final mix.
The cowbell is a rather sweet way of Leon doffing his musical hat to JC. Very nice little touch.
