I was outside herding a couple of malcontent dogs, and when I came back, this song was on, and I automatically started dancing. What a wonderful welcome back into my house! Love it, love it, love it...

Really? I'm the first to note irony between the cover art (WORDS INSIDE) and the lyric box saying "(no lyrics available")?

When the world is going to shit, this song soothes my soul! Love it. If I'm being turned into plasma by a nuke, can we please play this song? I'm sure it will make it feel a bit less painful.

Good Tune! I never heard of them before. Thanx RP! I found this, because "Rock Mix" was playing something I didn't like! ...instead of leaving a negative comment, I switched to "Main Mix"!

"hey, Miss Piggy, c'mon" and we were in. I kept hoping someone would be dressed as Kermit, at minimum so we could run to each other and embrace. I alread figured if I ran into a Kermie he would be gay, but who cares? Woulda been a moment! Half my posse were gay guys!
This is a wonderful story, and bless you for owning who you are enough to leverage it for a costume - obviously, the bouncers got it, which is why they wanted you inside!
I wish I was in your crew that night! Your story made my day!

Although I agree with some of the critical comments here, this song still has been stuck in my head every since I first heard it here over a year ago. Every once in a while I'd burst out singing it. Absolute banger, love it.
Turns out I never rated it though - 10 for me, definitely. There's a pain I feel deep inside when-ev-er I'm with-ouuuuuut youuuu

Let me sum up some comments on the singer:
"Julio Iglesias, is that you?“
„I hear Enrique for sure“
„Does anyone else hear George Michael in this?“
„Undertones of Feargal Sharkey“
„I thought it was Cher“
„Did Spandau Ballet reform?“

Knowing the difference is everything, said a wise man once, not caring is, too, said another.
Dolphins tend to have prominent, elongated “beaks” and cone-shaped teeth, while porpoises have smaller mouths and spade-shaped teeth. The dolphin's hooked or curved dorsal fin (the one in the middle of the animal's back) also differs from the porpoise's triangular dorsal fin.

my fave song by Boy on a Dolphin is "Fire". Heard it at a party once and was hooked and had to import their CD at the time (before days of downloads) Please add that one to your rotation to share some positive vibes :)

I LOVE this! I don't hear October Project in it, though - they're far too deep and introspective. The lead singer always had to remind herself to breathe! Then again, "Funeral In His Heart" is sorta typical of that group. I have one of their CDs, and I suspect they will always be an "autumn" band for me.
This song by Boy.... - Beautiful. Not comparing it to anything, because it's what it is, on its own merits.
