7/10 It´s a good song but something missing don´t really know what. Don´t know if this is the right phrase but anyway "The icing on the cake" is missing.
Time for a Swedishgroup again, couldn´t decide which song so I post 2 songs.

Lovely pop song that makes me wonder why 98% of pop nowadays is diabolical shite
Dragging up an old post, but I meant to reply at the time - for every year pop music (and most genres) has been around, 98% (or some other made up figure around there) of the music released that year has been "diabolical shite" - you just only hear about the good ones

fair enough although i think that pop music in the 60's was as a general point better. from what i know, although there were a lot of generic beatles copies there was a little less crap.

This. It's the nostalgia filter at work. We remember the best and the worst, but the crappy filler nobody remembers. So our minds compare the entirety of what's current against the cream of the past. Not a fair comparison, but one we do instinctively.
Here's an example. wacko said music overall in the 60s was better. Think 1969. Led Zeppelin's debut and second album, both that year. Yes's debut. Hendrix at his peak. The Beatles' Abbey Road! The Stones' Let it Bleed. King Crimson's best album. Velvet Underground.
And in the middle of all this, the number one hit single that year? The song that most people wanted to hear and buy? This dreck:
"I love him, I think he's great. He's transformed the sport in so many ways. Every person in cycling has benefitted from Lance Armstrong, perhaps not financially but in some sense" - Bradley Wiggins on Lance Armstrong
