| Sounds like a really late/half hearted attempt to jump on the Bow Wow Wow/wonky pop of Adam Ant bandwagon.
Was this the b side to Aie a Mwana or something? _________________ What does an Argonian do when he returns home for a back-breaking day of working in the field?
His Dunmer master's laundry, if he knows what's good for him. |

| I know that part of their appeal was their 'too cool for skool' deadpan vocal delivery, but it really just sounds like they genuinely can't be bothered.
