I guess I'm just put off by the Silver Girl lyrics, which start off badly and then descend from there. Then, the music is not arresting. It doesn't capture me on it's own. I guess I never got far enough past those two things to even appreciate her vocals, as I should.
She was a silver girl, lost in a high tech world
She was a golden girl, immersed in a hard core world
To come home to that, directly after I've spent a long night running through the garden . . . it just seems too much to bear.
