Ah yes… the Squeeze song that got them pigeon-holed as a laddish Cockney act. I love it, but it sounds very little like the vast majority of their catalogue (which is closer to mid-period Split Enz or early Crowded House).

Tempted is more representative, but still atypical given it has Paul Carrack - who was only a Squeeze member for five minutes - on vocals.

Stop Soulnet Stop!

No Milk Today by Herman’s Hermits.
Writtten by Graham Gouldman of 10cc fame. Amazing how many hits this guy wrote for others before finding fame.

That’s a song of despair told in terms of domestic details, and very effectively.

“And I would sell my soul for total control…over you”

Now that’s songwriting.

It happened one summer, it happened one time
It happened forever, for a short time
A place for a moment, an end to dream
Forever I loved you, forever it seemed…

My neighbour (good guy) played bass on this with the Radio Stars (says Freud was a flog)

Aside from Total Control, this is my favorite Motels song by far.

I did a version of this for a regional radio station based on a regular occurance at a local fast food outlet… it was called ‘Take the S Out of Rooster and it’s… ruuuuude’.

you are a lady of many talents Koala…

I had to search a little for this. It’s bad but I loved it at the time. Much like I did Steve Urkel and his show (Family Matters) and Golden Girls.
