I absolutely love it. That deep vein thrombosis bass, the reverse guitar touches of psychedelia, the U2 percussive delay, the big Guess Who 'American Woman' chords, the beautiful and oh so tuneful vocal.

Even by your usual high standards, this is something else. It's just brilliant, brilliant music.

With all the Xmas music I guess this got pushed to the back of the burner which is a shame outstanding vocal and great playing Bravo

I enjoyed that a lot.  I like the hard panning effect it added a lot of fun to the mix.

Good music, words and vocals Blooby and Lurker! The intro panning of the guitar back and forth sets the song up nicely. It creates a little suspense of where the song is about to head. The mid break psychedelic section is cool. A good melody and vox Lurker! What amp, effects and guitar are using Blooby? I like it!

Great song chaps, but I knew I was gonna like this from the first few phased chords going from left to right. Really creative and original songwriting and a crystal clear recording, especially love the sound of those vocals. Great stuff.

Nice!

I was just thinking today about how many pop songs can be imagined as stalker themes.

Downloaded. To the piPod. Will stalk again when it pops up in my new music playlist.

Love this.  I can feel another restraining order coming on.

Great song and I love the changes in dynamics.  Very well produced.

Wow, so much to adore here. Love those hard panned chords, the guitar sound really grabs you and the way you bring them in and out of the fuller sound adds great dynamics to the track. I'm also loving the drum sound, so clear and beautifully recorded. The structure of the song is really compelling, the psychedelic section is right up my street (I am a huge sucker for anything reversed), and they way the panned chords, drums and bass come back in is fab. It's a really cool song and you both did a superb job on this. Love it.

Stalker pop? Most rock, blues and pop songs seem to be about "getting the girl" and let's face it, a big reason for any guy joining a band in his youth is to attract the ladies (or maybe the guys). Whether it's still appropriate for old guys to be singing these songs, especially if they are schoolteachers, who knows...... ;) ;D

Just could not have said it all better. Creative and fun. Psychedlic interlude was a hoot! Excellent collab guys!

Apologies as I missed this. 

It's a rack mount Pod with a Timmy overdrive pedal in front of it. The delays and reverbs are all plug-ins from Valhalla DSP.

Thanks for listening.
