Tim: Press play, and ENJOY the glorious chorus that awaits.
Tom: Chorus?! Never mind the chorus, just that first verse is brilliant. I mean, don’t get me wrong, that is a spectacular chorus, one of the best I’ve heard in a good while, but when even the first verse gets me interested, we’ve got a great song.
Tim: Christie is British, the Dream Beats are a Swedish pair, and when they get together they are, it seems, able to produce pop music that’s almost on a par with Avril Lavigne at the very top of her game.
Tom: You know how damn cynical I am about songs, Tim. Nearly everything that comes through here, I’m going “meh” at. Not this. This is amazing. (And slightly reminiscent of Coldplay’s Yellow at the end of the verses, but that’s my brain making connections, not any sort of allegation.)
Tim: The attitude, the strength of the lyrics and the sheer vibrancy of everything going on, particularly in that wonderful and enormous chorus, just sounds fantastic. And what a fantastic message! ‘Yep, I slept with him, but dammit he was hot (and he was the one looking to get laid, not me) so I should really get a pass’. I mean I’d definitely forgive that. Who wouldn’t, really?
Tom: I’m generally in favour of messages like that, too.
Tim: All in: massive chorus, great lyrics, top marks, well done.
