Ha this is funny butt, (pun, lol) I would've thought never to write a song about hemorrhoids, lol. Cool lyric rhyming. The backing music is so good as are all the vocals. It does remind me of Ray Davies' solo style. Excellent Darren and Keith!

Excellent production with a Kinks kinda feel and hats off to Keith for the you beaut vocal work. This must've taken ages to put together with all that instrumentation and a great job - well done.
You're probably right ray, I am a bit crazy, haha. My next song will be about a milkman with halitosis lol.
I have 2 profiles on this site, (NOW COMBINED INTO ONE PROFILE PAGE)

Thanks for listening.

Top notch production and a funny song. Remeniscent of some of the funnier 10cc songs.  Nice one ;-)

Right up my street, too! I love a bit old fashioned (on a good way) tuba/bass backer. The harmonies are just perfect and I can hear some Beatles vibe, too.

Very catchy song!

WDF! This sounds like a better version of the Beatles. Not as olden, but at least as golden. I got slight Scissor Sisters vibes from this song too.

And yes Kinks vibes too. Wonderful!
