"One of the premier ska bands to emerge from the East Coast college scene in the early '90s, Fighting Gravity ushered in that decade's wave of ska-punk."

“A good example of how to give a chorus a lift by switching from minor to major key.”

“Great song! Zappa-esque humour with the fun of upbeat and bouncing ska! I'm new to ska, but I'd definitely recommend both this track, and this album. I'll be coming back for more Fighting Gravity, and more ska in general.”

“Diggin the ska, this ones going in my car. 2 dollar albums may get me a 62 dollar ticket..”

“After the first two tracks of fairly standard ska, the opening of this song really grabs your attention. The horns are what make a ska band, and the horns are what make this tune!”
