My friend Mikelangelo says the music video for this song is one of his favourites of all time. I once watched Mikelangelo and Alice Cottee do a cover of this live whilst Alice removed most of her clothing. If only I'd known the powers of musical suggestion I would have taken up the guitar much earlier than I did...

The Painted Hearts have a sound that is like a cross between Bo Diddley and Lou Reed. One of the best bands I know. Great songs. Great sound - Konrad Lenz Konrad Lenz
The Wedded Bliss are a great band with a great songwriter/frontman in Randall Blair. His songs are honest, well crafted and touch a raw nerve. Fantastic stuff - Konrad Lenz Konrad Lenz
The Bodies, fronted by Liam McKahey from Ireland, are one of the best acts in Australia. I've seen these guys live and they're phenomenal. Liam's a first rate songwriter and this record is great. Konrad Lenz
