I want to change my vote! I picked "It's OK" before reading that there was also an option for "Love the harmonies, song is just OK." The latter is my vote.
The vocal harmonies are nice. I like the retro feel. I don't hold the lyrics against them. There's nothing wrong with a light, breezy song (although I could have done without the magnet/steel line - that one has been claimed).
However, I am not into the electric-xylophone-kiddie keyboard-whatever the heck that plink-plonk is that we hear for the first 15 seconds and throughout the song. It really kills it for me.
Nevertheless, I am most certainly buying this album. It's LINDSEY BUCKINGHAM and CHRISTINE MCVIE. Even at their worst, they're better than most.
ETA: I just read in another thread that the xylophone-sounding thing is properly called a "marimba" - thanks fellow Ledgies!
