Possibly my favorite pure pop tune I ever wrote. Some reviewer once compared it to the Raspberries, and I would have to agree. I'm still amazed at my falsetto, which I learned from Brian Wilson and still can do, but maybe not quite as well as my 29 year old self here. Hooky and rockin, this is as uptempo a power pop tune as I ever did, with cool counter point vocals and harmonies and a great bridge. Not sure I could ever top this as far as pure pop songs go, but stay tuned.
