in 1989, I was in High School, driving around California watching the sun rise after a party listening to Deadbeat Club, Topaz, and Follow Your Bliss, over and over again.Once the sun was too bright I went home. That was my time...thank you Beth.

Mine was Bushfire..smoking some great weed and listening to the gang. Couldn't believe anyone could sound that clean and pure. Had listened to the B-52's a ton, but Cosmic Thing took it to a new level.

Can't believe it, I'm in candy galore when I'm listening to the Bs. Just found this song for the first time and I love it. This group is magical, their songs just hook you up from the start. I have a confession, the Bs has become an obsession to me. I can't stop listening to them.

a lil history of me and this song: once i asked my friend to download a b52 song good stuff and instead i got this track..instantly i fell in love with it...only for one of my friends to borrow the cd from me and when i asked about it. he says he can't find it...and i never really got the name of the b52 track... just this morning i used bit torent to download the discography after a two yrs interval and finally i found it.. the big smile on my face is quite menacing to say the least

This is so unlike the B52s, it's as if MTV kidnapped them and fed them quaaludes for a year in the Hollywood Hills then put them in a studio. Gone is the quirkiness of this band, what remains is hard to define, not generic but def MTV friendly. I really like these two tracks (Follow Your Bliss), but you'd never have picked the B52s going this far into the mainstream until this album.
