NOTE:  I suggest listening to the song link below before reading further…………

When I heard this song for the first time I was immediately hooked, but also intrigued.  I thought “I know who this is.  I think?”… sounds like a mix between Modest Mouse and vintage David Bowie… Great new band maybe???  WRONG.  This song was released in the late 70’s.

I LOVE when I find something that was recorded 30 years ago and sounds totally fresh.  The Buzzcocks were apparently ahead of their time with this cut.  Great bass backbeat with piercing guitar riffs, spacey vocals on the chorus and overall wonderful structure from a late 70’s punk band.  Great lyrics to boot. I am sure every guy has thought “why can’t I touch it” once in their life.  Enjoy this Old-New sound.
