Say Lou Lou – Hard For A Man

“It never really peaked above “slog” for me.”

Tim: You were bored by the first track of Say Lou Lou’s that we featured, and only mildly enthused by the second – let’s see if this’ll push any buttons.

Tom: Well, it’s caused a reaction at least, but sadly it’s “well, that’s a racket”.

Tim: Oh.

Tom: I don’t think I ever recovered from that seemingly-discordant introduction.

Tim: See, I kind of agree there, because that and the first (and only) verse may be a bit of a slog, but it quickly picks up for that first pre-chorus, carries on and by my favourite moment, when the second chorus kicks in, well, it just keeps going.

Tom: I’ll grant you that by the final chorus, at the end of the middle eight, perked me up a bit, but it never really peaked above “slog” for me.

Tim: I wouldn’t mind a bit more variation in the lyrics – yes, love’s hard for a man like me, I GET THAT so can we move on please – but I can’t fault the production on here at all. Overall, very happy.
