The song's OK, the vocals are weirdly ineffective.

Tune vaguely reminiscent of The Age of Aquarius.

There's a nice key change there.

For about 2 seconds though.

The second hit single.

I actually forgot all about it.

I bet this is how they got the James Bond gig.

Seagulls.

Harket sort of doesn't sound all that good a singer. sad yes

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Sat Mar 13, 2021 4:11 pm

Sounds like a track on an alternative version of War of the Worlds.

Orchestral key change at the end.

by Nightjar Sat Mar 13, 2021 4:13 pm

This sounds like...

The Smiths? shifty

by Fangirl Three Sat Mar 13, 2021 4:14 pm

That would be Grey Sky.

by Nightjar Sat Mar 13, 2021 4:14 pm

There's deffo something Morrissey-y at certain points.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Sat Mar 13, 2021 4:14 pm
