I remember how excited we all were about SFA when they first appeared in the mid-1990s but I doubt any of us expected that a decade and a half later they would still be putting out records as strong as this. The whole Dark Days/Light Years album (2009) is excellent, but this track in particular is remarkable for how effortlessly it plants itself under your skin.
There's an element of the novelty song here, as there always is with SFA, but again they manage to transcend that and turn it into what is simply an irresistible piece of electro-bubblegum pop (with suitably insane lyrics). In the hands of a lesser band it would probably be just as infectious, but not in a good way.
