In a just world, these guys would have been one of the biggest bands from the UK in the 90s, not fucking Oasis. It all sounds so damned effortless with them.

I saw an ad for some stink water (Calvin Klein, maybe?) that used a cover of this. I vaguely remember it from the mid-90s. Exceedingly generic power pop. It's fun enough, I guess, but it's telling that the ladies are the lowest part of the mix.

My class is discussing a disco book this week and I'm reminding myself that there's so much cool/goofy stuff going on there.
