Tim: I can’t remember, Tom – are you a fan of that thing that’s in vogue right now of a single synth note changing volume up and down throughout the chorus? I ask because if either of our readers really isn’t, they might want to come back tomorrow.
Tom: Oh bloody hell that’s dull. Seriously. I tried to listen three times, and each time I kept drifting away and getting distracted by something else. Is there a single synth note in the chorus? I don’t remember.
Tim: Really? Because I quite like that. That beat’s quite prominent, really, and while it is done fairly well it could still be enough to put some folk off. I personally find it entirely non-problematic, and indeed have a lot of time for this song in general. It’s fairly loud, it’s energetic, and in fact ‘entirely non-problematic’ could be used to sum up the song in general.
Tom: Which I think is part of the problem.
Tim: I don’t know – maybe it is a bit damning with faint praise, I’ll admit, but I promise it’s not meant that way. I do actually entirely like it.
