I like a lot of different kinds of music (not all), but recognize greatness when I hear/watch it. This song imo is pretty much perfect. 136 million views - others must feel the same.

Plus Ridge Forrester from Bold and the Beautiful is playing bass.

I remember that song. I would never have guessed that they were from England. I detected no accent while they were singing.
I never heard their speaking voices.

That song is well produced too.
I like the mild echo during the refrain. It described the feeling of desolation and distance.
I like that the vocals and the music do not drown each other out.

Apparently, some people think Daryl Hall and John Oates did this song . . .

Great tune. They were a one hit wonder, despite a second song entitled “this time i’m in it for love” which no one seems to have heard.

This song brings back nothing but bitter memories of love lost, a descent into depression and self-destruction that lasted years.

One of the guitarists ended up on the soap “Bold and the Beatiful”, right?

This song and many others like it are played on Sirius/XM Channel 14 (Yacht Rock Radio).

I still think this is the only song with “false bravado” in it. Lol.

Ronn Moss left B&B quite some time ago. Unfortunately, the current actor in the role is all wrong (a serious German actor playing a laid-back California dude).
