tone Bob, Cool 80's guit, bass and synth sounds on this lil gem. Teen angst, gotta love it. Dig it when the lyrics start to layer at the end. Nice harmonies! PV |

It's fizzy! Love the synths, and the backing vocals work really well. Straight outta the 80's and sounding good - |

teenage angst I really agree with you on Death Arrow (except what he does is more refined than what I could do) and , as far as lucidity is involved, I'd take teenage angst instead of midlife crisis anytime ! Cool, well balanced tune, the perfect match of electricity ad electronics, but I don't hink I'll lend you my credit cards anymore. |

I'm transported ... .. back to 1980. This could be a lost Gary Numan track. Fantastic vocal and just enough minimal electro rock to make this a memorable and really rather splendid little piece. |

This is really infectious Bob - carries you along with it. Like the minimal instrumentation. Works well. Cheers Len |

2 chords and no turntable but maybe a microphone! Alice Cooper would be proud not a boy or man... I still feel that way. Now its" not a man just an old man". Just kiddin. Amazing what can be done with just 2 chords excellent! |

I was 17 once or so I'm told. Although I've seen no photos to prove it so I reckon it was made up like those moon landings. Loved the song though (even if I have no idea what it's about) Cheers Dick |

Indie Rock? I didn't know you were from Indiana. Wild, and madcap sound, brother. LL |

Wild And Madcap I guess until they come up with some better genres I'm kinda lost. Wild and madcap sounds like a good one for me. Thanks Dave. |

Great Premise I enjoy the fact that you are actually successful in relating to teenagers in this, " youre not a boy youre not a man"- great line This is like modern beach boys to me, has a fantastic surf music quality to it, Excellent recording! |

excellent you know i'm all for the simple chord progressions. this is awesome, love all the sounds and the vox/harmonies. i have a couple of credit card picks myself. when that stuff comes in the mail i try to recycle what I can. be careful if you play a gig with them: some eagle eyed opportunist could get a glimpse of your info and steal your identity. |

17 ??? that was soooooooo long ago lol. This is one of the best 2 chord songs I have heard. I will have to check out more of your catalogue as you have a truly unique sound. Peace Guy |

What DO you mean I've 4 kids from 14 - 28 yrs of age... My two older ones pretty much prefered music a bit different than dad, but my 16 yr old is always asking to borrow my CD's, from Beatles, Zep to Floyd, U2 and Toadies & more, and enjoys playing the violin & viola in orchestra at school ? I guess I was pretty much like that, too - I even liked my dad's popular and classical music; he'd always wait til mom went to the store and cranked up his music :) - he was always interested in mine as well (even Deep Purple), and asked for copies of Cat Stevens and CSN&Y.... . - Harold |

sweet 17 You are truly the creative offspring of Johnny Lydon and Vince Clarke. I love teen angst because i've really never grown out of it so the tune resonates. Once again dig the keys but aren't you showing off a bit with the TWO chords? I mean Bob Mould used to play a 45 minute solo on the E string. The fewer notes you use the more there are to go around. |

We like noise, it's our choice... It's what we wanna do, we don't care about long hair, I don't wear flares... No? Oh, ummm, I thought it was the Pistols cover... ...However, it's not. It's a half-speed 5EA, with a spaced-punkoid, teen related, brilliant 2 chord piece of nostalgia. A new departure, I think, from your renowned output. Very clever, very subtle Bob. Still loving your work... Nice new keyboard beside them there pix, man! Jim |

Bob It's weird, but I think this is one of your best songs! It's special because you didn't just scream and try to be 17, you wrote this detached, cool, song. The lyrics had to be a generalization, but you made them clever and compassionate. I LOVE it. I wrote a 2-chord song once. It was one of MY favorites. Wrote it when I was in college, and pretty angsty. I think you'd love it. It's on analog though, so I'd have to figure out how to get that on here, or else re-record it. Peace, *E |

17 i like these synths in the background they fit perfectly to the song. cheers, luke |






















inspirational. I got a gig with Splinter on Saturday night and our centerpiece song has only one chord. Hope we can sound as cool as this. Love your vocal treatment BTW.
