this is the best thing on the Fleetwood Mac Tribute album.

this is not usually what i listen to, but this song is pretty sweet. reminds me of late 80’s stuff, like Lisa Lisa and the Cult Jam’s Lost in Emotion

great song, got all the good elements i was looking for. you know when you hear something and then hope it delivers on your expectations? this one did.
i’m really into the whole album, but here’s one of my favorites. very Brian Jonestown Massacre 60’s-tinged stuff… plus the name is really funny. hope they don’t get the fatwa. :)
this song is so good, if it did come out in the 80’s would’ve been a hit… not sure if it’s possible now, but what do i know. let’s give it a few months and see.
it’s my song of the month. sotm!

i like the vulnerable vocals and then the hard hitting horns coming in.
such a great groove, and then the sweet melody. wow.
so good… i know that’s what i post here, all the good ones :)
oh so good! nice little grower of a song, really like how it unfolds.
very cool stuff.

everyone knows this one, still it’s just so great, esp when the back up vocals come in on the chorus, ahead of the main vocal.
sounds like something from the 80’s… might’ve been a hit back then. still cool.
this song sneaked up on me… found myself singing it without realizing.
the chorus slays.
