This is one of the most brilliant pieces of art I've heard/seen lately. Modern-sounding synth pop mixed with disco elements. Catchy yet still able to pack a punch of social commentary. I love the choral parts and the psychedelic vibe. In the video, the expressions of the salespeople are unforgettable!

It's got such a catchy beat too. I love that Steven does kind of different style than when he is in porcupine tree. Just like how Blackfield was different as well, simple songs about the pains of life, a girl leaving you after a summer fling type of music. Catchy and mainstream, would be a huuuuge hit if they had based the band in the states. He writes like everyone and no one else on earth at the same time it's fucking unreal how amazing he is... and his VOICE too. Not all amazing song writers are great singers or singers at all, what a gift to have such unique head voice. It's very very cool. The content of this song as well is very accessible and the meanings behind it are plain and clearly stated as opposed to mysterious like some of PT songs aren't totally always obvious about the theme and lesson he wants to impart on society. IMO I could hear a song like this coming from, say, Taylor Swift, easy - I mean Elton John DID read the spoken word interlude. So it's very multilayered and sounds amazing. His production value is always super high as well because he spends so much time in the studio mastering and stuff - way more imo than most musicians.

So go back to your basic self and ask, do I need to be someone else? Such a huge world of PPL that must satisfy vanity. Love how its captured here.
