Notes
"Fresh water pop, nought to do with the current West End play. Friendly Memphis guitar line, Sarah in lovestruck dreamland, all quite innocent until the horn appears and slap and tickle is very much in the cards." (Saint Etienne April 1998)

"A fine example of the crisp Swedish sound with ultra tight drums." (Pete Wiggs 2010)
