| This might be the best song on the album so far. |

| It is over. It came close to working but lacked a certain vivacity and felt like a group jumping on a bandwagon just after its wheels had dropped off. Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it. _________________ |

| It was OK that.
Fell off into plodding cover-version mediocrity half way through, but rallied towards the end.
Hard to dislike.
Easy-ish to like.
Impossible to h8. _________________ Disprove the return of a potato (5)

| I quite liked it. But gawd help the Glam Rockers who thought they were going to make it '76. _________________ 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. |

| Not the most thrilling of albums, but it was tolerable. Anything glam lacked the campness and tongue-in-cheekness of true glam rock so it felt a bit flat and stale for the most part. That last track was alright. All in all, a bit better than last night's Rolling Stones.
2.5/5
Rounded up to 3/5 for voting. |

| Feeling generous.
Old rubbish that didn't know what it wanted to be like this deserved some slack cut. _________________ Disprove the return of a potato (5)
