I read some blog post on some other blog that wasn't this one (it was scary, I tell you, venturing out there into the music blogosphere) that this song sounded like something out of the 90's and I was like, "Wait, what? The 90's? This is pretty much straight mid-1960's or..." but then I did a little Googling and I discovered that there's this Australian band named Regurgitator (a pleasant name) and that the blog was from Australia and it all became sort of clear to me.

It left me wondering how the rest of the world, the part of the world that used to receive it's music a little bit late in comparison to the rest of the world (I assume the internet has mitigated that), thinks about music history. Are people in the Netherlands of the idea that "Kids in America" didn't come out or get popular until the late 1990's? Do people in Canada currently think that N'Sync is the sickest boy band since The Backstreet Boys?

Also, really, who names a band Regurgitator? "Who's ready to be REGURGITATED!?"

This song is interesting. That's why I'm posting it. It really caught my attention because of the whole 60's girl group vibe type thing at the core of this. The rest is just frosting really, including the break down freak out after the dreamy bridge. I listened to a little bit of The Mint Chick's other stuff and wasn't exactly gripped by the throat, but I'll go back to it some other time and try it out after I tire of the novelty of this song. Oh, novelty, how you ruin me for honest music.
