new power pop song which embraces the sound of last century - sort of sigue sigue sputnik tamed, lol (well, at least they charted...haha!)
power pop synths schneider
some people get by with a little understanding, some people get by with a whole lot more..
think back to when Gary Numan wrote and recorded 'Cars' in 1979 and if we don't think we've lost something we're crazy...but if we think it's coming back anytime soon then we are complete fools... can you still recall in the juke box hall when the music played and the world spun round to a brand new sound in those far off days.. in their blue suede shoes they would scream and shout as they sang the blues, let it all hang out.. rock and roll..

Story behind the song
we love doing power pop and this is something we've waxed and polished so as to hopefully sound like it means it, lol!
Lyrics
Who knows the things that you can't see You know there are things that you don't need Cannot leave the things that leave you lonely Can't expect to put this back on me Oh, oh, oh Who needs these things that you don't need You know these are things that'll set you free Cannot leave the things that leave you lonely Can't expect to put this back on me [amazing] Take a walk, round the block, open up Take a walk, go for broke and step it up Take a chance, do it now and liberate Take a check, user pay, accelerate And you know it's never easy I know you meant no wrong Yeah, they tell me it ain't easy To put this in my song Cannot leave...............o...kay... Who knows the things that you can't see You know there are things that you don't need [amazing] Cannot leave the things that leave you lonely Can't expect to put this back on me Take a walk, round the block and open up Take a walk, go for broke and step it up Take a chance, do it now and don't take me and I know it don't come easy...

That is very powerful pop ! Straight in from the get go with a menacing powerful presence. Love the big sound of the instrumentation and perfect vocals and lyrics which definitely scream 80s to me but still sounds fantastic today . Excellent!

This song has an indefinable presence about it that makes you sit up and take notice the moment it starts playing. I hear a lot of influences from the 80's/90's in this & love the melody, style, vocals & lyrics. A perfect radio hit!
