A great pop song that has layers, love all the backing harmonies they work so well, and the overall composition works! great sounding guitar. 'Stevie C'

Love the summery, uptempo feel to this and the harmonies. Catchy stuff - voted :)

Nice tracks:)

Good work Martin...rock and roll..oh ye

I second that!

You have 'IT'...and you should be signed!

Thought I'd come by and listen to a track of yours. Congratulations on the new one! I like the opening. Good stuff. I like the lyrics a lot. That's the way I feel about my wife. This song explains it all when I had first met her. lol I like the happy, peppyness of the song. It's a great tempo. The production sounds a bit too bright to me but by all means, it doesn't take away from the enjoyment of the song. It's very entertaining. It's a good joy to sing about someone you like. This reminds me of one of those songs a boy could sing to a girl he likes, outside after throwing a rock at her window. All in all this is a very up-beat track. Very happy and energetic sounding. The production was a little too bright to me and the guitar and rhythm could have used a bit more depth but by all means does this not take away the enjoyment of the song. It's a great little tune! Your voice fits the style very very well. Awesome job done here! Have a good rate and an awesome day!

Very catchy pop with a def '60s sound/vibe. Rated.

Love the tune mate great vocals and harmonies.Pop at its best,has that 60's vibe with a modern feel nice one .R

This tune has a beat that makes sense! Love the Brian Wilson/Beatles harmonies and rich layers. Nice!

This song has a happy uplifting quality. Quite a pick-me-up. It stays in my mind long after hearing it, which is always a good sign. Cool stuff. Rated.

wow ! a real surprise. the sun has come out and the weather is fine. love this. real toe-tapper with a beach boy-ish drop in the middle. rated.

Popalicious. Great track again, 2nd I've heard from you, both accenting excellent song writing and arrangment originality. Clap clap.

Beach Boys harmonies, sort of. Sunny song. The guitar arrangement suits the tune very well. wow, even falsetto in the break. boom boom boom... hehehe, classic songwriting at its best. just the fade is a bit abrupt.

Martin, Wow! I love this! I can see why it won. Energy, energy, energy, fun, fun, fun all the way through. Beatles meets Do Wop meets ... Martin. The harmonies are great and the ending is FANTASTIC. Dean

How does this work then? The first comment on this tune is on 12th August ('scuse me, bap-bap-bap-bap goin' on here) by 'Kiopo' and then later I find you've won the summer competition sponsored by 'kiopo.com'.

This tune is just fantastic! It would have been a smash back in '64 fo sho!

Great song. Great Talent!!! Congrats on #1 Martin. Rated!

Congrat's on 1st place Martin, well deserved!

Well done on coming first Martin - this is brill - love it.

Congrats Martin!! :D This reminds me of a 50s tune. Those aahs and oohs give it that feel. I really like this man. Very happy and kinda catchy. Awesome stuff Martin! :D Rated and nominated!

congrats Martin. I remember this song now. catchy and the haromonies are top

congrats

Definitely rated.

Love this track. Simple as that. Great vocal tricks and loads of fun...KELSTER aka

Fun song, I really like the stylings you do with your vocals, you have a really good feel for presenting your songs. Catchy 60's feel to the song.

Oh well this proves my other post wrong...I have indeed been here before and loved what you did with this song...brilliant...damn I nommed it before!

great work on the vocal harmonies. all in all this is a great bit of indie pop ;-)

Wow nice voice is this the one with the new mic? Sounds crystal clear to me. Can't believe I've not been to your page before, I'm sure I have though, maybe on one of your other track. I like the uplifting vibe to this track, lyrics and vocals top class.

Very upbeat, catchy and witty! Like the drive in it too and those cool guitar sounds. This song immediatetly brought a smile on my face, especially also your singing that talks of self-irony and faked self-pity. Thank you :-)!

Awwe yes! Congratulations on making the charts Martin! Way to go! :)

In the charts again!Congrats man.This tune rules in my book.Great job.Big thumbs up!

congrats on being an official chart topper this week. Kid

Hi Martin This is Cowboy Cal (Bob Brannan) Nice song ... The retro thing is cool ... Rated Bob

Hi Martin, thanks for the prompt, this is a cracking tune. And you've got 'aah-aah-aah-aah' and 'doopdoopdoopdoop' and 'oohoohooh' all over the place. Come on everyone, this is IT, England needs more 'bupbupbup' over handclaps. And Martin, don't know what your day job is but I'd like (a) to buy a luscious CD, like Foreboding's "Hand of God" (b) to know of any gigs you might be lining up.

oh and the coral springs to mind two good bands so take our compliments and rating

loved it m8 upbeat little cracker with very good lyrics in the mould of cast dunno if there an influence on ya ..well done and rated

Hi ya Mr. Talented! Took another listen. "Yep" Love this! Good luck in the contest now! "Go get em'" :)

Class track mate! Bit quirky for me but i can see the quality! Got the beatles influence and from here sounds a little sheddish : ) Great vox and guitar playing dude!

60's ripping out of this mate, quality vocals and catchy hook to it, I can see this getting a lot of attention, rated: Regards: Fatal X 8 ~ Aka ~ Destri

i still can't get enuff of this tune. Awww yeah!!!! love it. congrats on making the charts! ck out my new material in about 2-3 days ok. Kid http://www.mp3unsigned.com/deShawn.ASP

Nice upbeat one here Martin. has a 50's/early 60's style too that is great. thats cool to hear some harmonies as mnay don't do this now. catchy all the way.

Very nice guitars, liking the vocals and lyrics with good harmonies! Very catchy song, well done

Agree with the Beatles influence but that doesn't deter from the fact that this sounds far superior than half the crap we listen to in the charts. Amazing stuff! Especially like the chorus sections that really build the vocals up.

*bows*.....sheer class mate....i know its been said, but it's got Beatles written all over it. I love the beatles, and love this track. I'd love to have half your talent. rates and noms all the way. I salute you!

Amazingly good, fresh, funny, bright and breezy. Time for a collab between you and Scott?

hehehe !! Martin, I just love that boom, boom, boom at the end. Fantastic!

Darn this is a great number, been listening at work all day, and humming it on the way home aswell! Great vocals, harmonies and guitar work. Your best one yet. ONAGER

A very catchy song that lifts the spirits!

Hi Martin! I can see where you would get excited about your song and recording! Wonderful all-a-round! Love the upbeat tempo and performance is tops! :) Carol Sue

Hi Martin.Most of it has been said really.This IS your best to date in my book and all the analagies with the 60s greats are so true.It is memorable, catchy and bounces along really well.The harmonies are varied and tight (Beach boys towards the end!)I loved it my friend and it well deserving of a nomination from me and the rating naturally.Excellent stuff. Andy :)

fair play..propar jiggy and happy...another special this morning that is snapping me out of a bad mood.

This is my favourite of the week. heres some personal R&N;

Wow! Martin! What an excellent lively song. I really like this and fair dues to ya for rattling it off in a night. Guitars excellent. Vocals Excellent. Harmonies and backing vox Excellent. Love the retro feel. Top production. Overall ..... Ya like! HOT man!!! Best song I've heard in ages. !!!!!!!! Rogue R&N; from the Shed

Fantastic track! I love the play off between the vox and high guitar part. The breakdown is so feel-good (in fact, so is the whole track). Definately keeping this for the summer days :)

Nice one Martin.It does have a Beatles and even a little 50's rock sound to it.Love them harmony back ground vocals.Great beat to it,Think I'll nominate this baby!

Brilliant - I can't say anythinig different to what has already been put - this is very 'Ready, Steady, Go' This will do well in the competition - good luck.

had to take another listen...i love this sound!!! The Kid

i think beatles when i hear this. and reading through it looks like others have as well. this is truly a great track, perhaps my favorite of yours. so that means download time...and a rating

Forgot to say......rated.

I agree with all the previous comments. I love the break/bridge towards the end. I would have liked to hear one or two 'comic' lyrics in there I think. More enjoyable stuff!

oh well everyone beat me to it...it's early sixties and as good (or better because of modern production)of anything in British pop music of that time. Elements of Beatles, Herman's Hermits, Hollies and I reckon the Beachboys harmonies too. This is First Class and the most rounded song in your collection. You get a nom from me in addition to all else, Martin. Be proud honey!

I like it .........

yeah, I can hear the early beatles and perhaps a little billy joel in there too. Cool piece man, sounds like it was fun to make... keep it up!

Very light hearted, chipper tune. Sounds alot like early Beatles. I picture you guys running through London from a pack of wild teenage chicks... the drummer stumbles on a crack in the sidewalk, falls (looks like that's gonna' leave a mark!) Great, tight tune!

Wow, I wasn't expecting such a nice tune...this is hot!!! Very hot! love those harmonies, toe tappin' music...very smooth! I enjoyed it immensely...ratedx, The Kid

Yeah man ! You did it again ! great honest track. I can see that you would wanna finish this in 1 night. Great choirs, haha, made me feel very good !

Ha great song!..this has BEATLES written all over it!...and thats not a bad thing!...(is that macca on the bass by the way?;)....Excellent bassline melodys. Love the layered harmonies, and vocals are great. Youre best track yet i think. Superb man! Top work! Great writing. Mark

quality stuff bro love the vocals gr8 harmonies wicked guitar yup this is more like what i was expecting mighty good track :) gets all my love thumbs up fella

reaaaally good song.. love the lead guitar part and the harmonies.. top stuff :) rated & nominated
