Liner Notes

The perils of 'up next' videos and where they lead #newwave

Lyrics

I saw a thing that I wanted to see On your videomatic machine It was all that I dreamt I could be Until I opened the package

It could be a nice day If I had a carwash Or maybe some icecream Flavoured with everything

I've been saving my uncertainty All my wavering un-self-belief I put into the things that I buy I see videos of...

It could be a nice day If things were much clearer I try to remember the Way out of the rabbit hole

Are you hearing things that aren't there? Voices, faces, thoughts of thin air?

I very much enjoyed your twist on the old title. I knew I would like this one just based on that. Really cool, slick sounding track. Nice surf guitar sound on the guitar. That spring reverb is cool! Also, that rabbit hole goes really deep, doesn't it? :)

Great stuff. I love that tone on the guitar and how it just seems to chug along doing it's own complimentary but different thing.

Skinny-tie new wave delightfulness! I especially like the vocals, which have just the right touch of cool detachment. This definitely could've come off the radio of the era.

Proper old-school new wave fun (if that's possible). Loving that big fat guitar with the spring reverb and the bass absolutely tying everything together. Sweet!
