I like it. Probably one of my two favourite tracks on the album. The arrangement of the song is excellent as are the little backing vocals (the 'ooh, ooh's' - love them ). And lyrically it's fun when you know the story behind it. It seems an obvious attempt to be "Quo" but the most Quo-like tracks usually emanate, at least partially, from Rhino. Richie is tuned into how Rick would have played it and, all in all, it's got a nice swing to it. Yeah, 9/10 this

I hadn't listened to it for a while. The vocal is fuggy because there is so much of it (56-track?). Apart from that, it could be a classic days album track. There is a really nice Francis guitar solo. Yes, the backing vocals aren't really backing vocals, they are proper gibbon noises! Aha I see Rhino had some part in this.

Fantastic riff. A fun and enjoyable song
Love the line "there's no time for fun time when you get that way"

It's ok. Almost too many words for Rossi to get out but it's ok.

Quite a bit of Solid Gold in there. I discovered this when listening while the TV was on as well.

One of the best tracks on Backbone. Really like this track. Personally I am not too keen on the ooh ooh's but that's just a very small minor thing.
