“Amazing early surreal psychedelia from RH and the gang, including vertiginous wall-of-sound and Robyn's usual bizarro lyrics. A classic and a treasure.”

“excellent uptempo quirky song. A good intro to Robyn, and a definite if you don't have this already. Steady guitar bass, and drum Robyn has the uncanny ability to make what should be conventional middling music become something special. I unfortunately already had this and downloaded it by mistake!”

“Sounds to me like a cross between George Harrison & John Lennon. Not to pigeonhole him, though. There's a great diversity of styles & sounds in these tracks.”

“This has enough chnages in tempo and mood to show off His voice well. It is not that he is a great singer but this is a beautifully crafted song. It is compelling for the oddness fo the lyrics. Great song and brilliant musician”

“A really beautiful song that illustrates how his guitar and voice wind around each other. His slight adjustments of tempo and changes of inflection somehow get to me!”

“This may not be his best, but it is indicative of his style. if you get into the tinbre of his voice most of his music is appealing. Someone I could listen to all day. His guitar is expansive and beautifully compliments his singing”
