Does anyone else think this is a wonderful, neglected gem? The song's brisk gallop, Robert's uncharacteristically aggressive (and sexual) vocal, the sheer wallop of his rhythm guitar - wonderful. The keyboard solo and Fairlight-treated backup vocals may date the song, but they also underline the bliss that the clipped chorus ("you tell me" what?) is too ecstatic to pin down. And Robert desperate "Come on! Come on!" near the outro? Lovely.

great song. always wakes me up. real good dirty rough sound to it but the chorus part is really fresh and like an early morning drunk walk home, thinking with glee about a shower. to me anyway. sigh.

I agree with everything said here. Definitely one of Talluah's highlights.
