A riff borrowed from Depeche Mode's Personal Jesus and we're off down that rockin' road to big guitar hell! And look - there's some Spinal Tap harmonies to laugh at as we go!

Except these guys clearly aren't laughing - they mean it, man! And, really, you do have to tip the big Slash top hat to them for not bothering to compromise their rock vision or leave the Eighties behind. There's extra amusement to be had in that authentic headbanger pronunciation of 'me' as 'may' (as in 'is it them or is it May?') and... oh, this is too easy, really.

Let's leave it at this: people who feel The Darkness have betrayed the cause and that Black Rebel Motorcycle Club have gone all 'weird' will love this. The rest of us should just be pleased that something this crappay only turns up, you know, once in a while.
