Artist:The Subways
Album: Young For Eternity
Year Released: 2005
What It Is: Just a rockin’ little tune about a rockin’ girl. I think, in this case, it’s the bass player who was dating the guitarist / singer at the time. They broke up, but I think the band is still going on and rockin’.
Riffage / Hookage: The chorus is repetitive yet catchy, the melody is decent, and the song rocks in a rockin’ way.
Cowbell?: Not that I can hear, though he’s rockin’ the skins.
Words Of Wisdom: “You are the sun
You are the only one
You are so cool
You are so rock and roll”
Ok, it’s not Proust, but it’s rock and roll.
Mixology Report: Rock and roll it out! Great for driving and general all purpose rocking.
For The Good Of The Order: Like many couples in rock and roll, after some popularity the boyfriend / girlfriend combo split up. They’re still together as a band, but now the songs are a bit darker and less celebratory. But that’s rock and roll! Rock!
