Article written by Paul M - Jun 20, 2009

A Hereford five piece with a penchant for 80s sax and bouncy Afrobeat rhythms, this single is so 80s it ought to be presented by Kid Jenson sporting a pastel coloured blazer with the sleeves rolled up. It's also so damned happy and smiley that were it to walk into your room you'd probably have no compulsion in kicking its cheesy grin down its throat. A harsh reaction maybe but believe me if you don't you'll have its cheery irritatingly good chorus wedged between your ears for weeks to come.
