The best way to describe this song is the way my girlfriend put it. "It
sounds like an evil Beach Boys song." True the song is kind of depressing but
it sounds too cool. Once again it's a pretty easy song to get once you get
the strumming patterns down flat. So have fun with it, sweep some beautiful
girl off her feet with it it, cause it's Chris Isaak 95.....Dig it!
