I just saw the video preview. This reminds me of the 80s. Well.. this is probably just fab.. pure genius and worthy a Nobel prize. Why is there a girl in that video? Having her in there = sexy?

Girl in video=sexy to me but i geuss if you are gay then it wouldnt be very sexy,the sound is cool my opinion...as it does actually have some instruments on the track but maybe it isnt strictly electro...nevertherless i like it...and it has talent in the number....
and i didnt realy post it for any other reason that i thought it was cool...

If I had been gay I might have loved this.. like.. "She wearing the same clothes I am wearing" etc etc. Whatever..

I am just extremely tired of 80s styled stupid videos. They weren´t much good then, and they are not getting any better. Hmm.. this is my subjective opinion. The music is OK I guess. It sounds like a 83-86 brit mixture of this and that. If you are into this kinda stuff I guess you also like some of the better moments of Gary Numan and space cadets like that. Back then I guess I enjoyed groove based and well produced stuff like Talking Heads etc etc back in the early/mid 80s. When I think of it I imagine I might have been way too old back then to be able to enjoy the current "sexy" synth pop.

But.. great.. THX for posting this anyway. The music is not bad compared to similar stuff in the same style. Very Happy

Hiya...

I guess it has a little of numan in it...hadnt thought of that when i heard the song,but i guess i was more into the 80s thing like billy idol and his later "necromancer" style techno stuff with steve stevens gerat guitar licks oover it all some other electronic stuff...i always liked yazoo and such,so was pleased when i found something a bit retro ...i just think the current thing is tired...well produced yes but very mainstream these days where as this follows an older style production. which made it interesting to hear where the song was cxoming from...i could heard the cross of old style rock n roll guitar and progression in it which is highly interesting as i dont know fo any song specifcally like this out there Very Happy

..but interesting to hear your opnion on the song and the very best wishes.
