Really catchy well produced sounding song which I enjoyed listening to. I tend to agree with the earlier comment about “ she promised and yes I got laid”.

Janne, Fun light hearted punk tune. You have a wonderful sense of humor. Musically delicious. I was sure you used other non-PG synths, but seems with exception of Sitar (which was an unusual, but cool choice) all BIAB players. Excellent arrangement & mix. I can only imagine how long it took to train robo boy. Sounds very realistic. Enjoyed it and thank you for sharing.
Misha. Thanks Misha, I appreciate your very positive review  The training is not a big task, usually just finetuning. In this case I had to work bit more to increase the intensity level on several words. I had to wait for 15 years for the release of the best selection of punk RTs but it seems that it was worth the wait  Janne

Hi Janne. A lot of work went into this one. Some of the lyrics seem a little old fashioned for modern times but it's all cleverly done. Great sound.
Vic Thanks Vic, I appreciate for your positive feedback  I agree with the old fashioned part, DVDs belong to past and I guess Silent Hill also, but the song is a product of its time so I'm not interested in modernizing the story  Janne

That synth voice is so awesome here.
Yes, I hear Weezer and a bit of Fountains of Wayne.
Catchy pop tune. You've got a winner with this.
Clever production.

Hi, Janne. Cool song, fun write. Vocal harmonies are cool, guitar solo works well. Interesting arrangement and mix. She had got my virginity, even hard disks, backup DVDsWell, as long as he got laid. Thanks David for your nice feedback  Glad you found the point of the song, I would have liked to write a longer list of other things she got, but there was no room  Janne

Janne,
Gotta chair dance on this one. A good PopPunk package. You do these better than anyone else here. Catchy as hell. Enjoyed,.
fj
Thanks Floyd your positive comment  I feel honoured by your words, maybe you have encouraged me to release another pop punk song, but it would be nice to hear that genre by other artists on this forum too... Glad to hear about your chair dancing. Janne

A fun listen, Janne.  Cool write! Kevin sounds great and he and Solaria work a charm as the backup singers. The driving band works well and we enjoyed the sitar. Wonderful group of session players! And the mix sets up a great soundstage on our monitors. Enjoyed it! J&B PS. That was a good melody to have in your head when you awoke. Thanks Janice & Bud for your positive words  Glad you liked about so many details. Haven't got any new melodies for many years after waking up, maybe I've missed the skill of composing in my dreams or looking into the collective unconscious  Janne

Good raw punk song with some nice surprises. I love it.
I was expecting Kevin to be too clean for this band, but you did a good job making him sound raw as well. Thanks B.D. for your kind words  I noticed that I didn't even use breathe setting to add some roughness to Kevin's voice like I usually do, so I think the raw sound comes from adding some distortion to it in the mixing phase. Janne

Clever production. Thanks ES for your positive feedback  I was not very familiar with Fountains of Wayne, but I surely need to listen to them now, seems to be close to my musical taste, thanks for mentioning! Janne

Excellent track! It really rocks! J'aime bien la dynamique mais aussi I like the dynamics and the unexpected break at 1:08. Honestly, it's all good! And the guitar solo is right on the money!
