Default Lucky

It occured to me, I don't think I've seen this song EVER being discussed on this board ....

Anyone like it? It's no masterpiece for sure, but it is a fun, catchy and hooky song, almost Beatles-esque in its simplicity. Wouldn't have fitted on Bounce at all, sounds far more like a Crush outtake, but a pretty good b-side IMO

Aloha !

Absolutely wank. The worst of the Bounce demo's and should never have seen the light of day. The lyrics are appaling.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

It's ok, for a B-Side anyway. Very Beatles.

So Beatles-y, agreed, and I can't stand it. I've tried and tried to dig it for it's poppishness and I can't do it.

For once they did the right thing and the b side was rightly left off the album.
