Third single time for the impossibly youthful four-piece The Music, this time throttling back on the trance-influenced beats of much of the rest of the album in favour of a slightly sinister vibe.

Singer Robert Harvey, obviously auditioning for the role of chief munchkin in panto now that Robert Plant has decided to put Led Zeppelin back together, maintains his track record for singing the minimum number of notes possible as high as he can.

Meanwhile, superbly named guitarist Adam Nutter whips up proceedings with his almost ethereal contributions to the track. Three singles in, and we still like them, even if some variation might be a good thing from time to time.
