I caught this one on SC a few months ago,so it was good to listen again.

Top marks for rhyming shellfish Festival with inflated genitals!  :D

All the fun of the fair,mad,crazy and top entertainment.

Really enjoyed this one, CS. I always do!

Had a couple of listens...sassy vocals and a real fun track...still with that element of wackiness that I love...but much more to it than just that. Especially like the way it keeps changing gear....seemed to be over much quicker than its running time...always a good sign!

Always very intelligent and unpredictable...you're a one-off.

Super cool  8)

thanks so much for your kind comments @PaulAds  ;D I'll take the 'element of wackiness' as a compliment ;) Nice to hear that over 5mins doesn't seem that long...I was a little worried about that  ::) I think you're a one off as well, so that makes us a two off, I guess ;D ;D

Brilliant images here, from the pretzels through the genitals to the molecules... Love it!


Those details bring it to life. The backing makes it sound almost more Caribbean than Canadian but a clever choice I think.


Was wondering about the title (Prisoners of War? let's not go there...) but thankfully Mr Google knows where zungas come from.


Cool stuff.
I'm so glad you appreciated the images I so thought fully put together Adam... lol!
Ya, the BV's take this Latin vibe into a whole other genre...not sure what.
I actually thought of adding the 'POW-Prisoners of War' thing in a humorous vein, but nothing jumped out at me. Thanks again for listening.

Hi Suzy,

This has a lovely innocent, child-like approach with just enough tongue in cheekiness to make it funny - inflated genitals! This is actually quite conventional compared to some of your other songs and I love the attention to detail and density of ideas parading through the production. It does remind me of Joni Mitchell after she's had a sense of humour and fun transplant.

A wonderful confection which I enjoyed immensely.

Wow Suzy,

You've painted your town very well, looks like we all want to go there!

It's great how you've fused all the different styles together.

Love that cheeky piano intro and the percussions.

V. clever lyrics and the song passes seamlessly from section to section.

Love seafood .... and this song.

Well this is different CS! Love the groove and the piano...you nailed a great beat here. The lyrics are hilarious as well - I want some of that homegrown beer.

I love the bit where you go into the "rap", and then segue back with those choral voices...

You must love where you live by the way. Very cool song indeed, as always  :)

Hey MR, I know this is a total switch-a-rue for me! I mean Latin? what the hell?
We do have a diverse cultural base, but hardly heavy on the Spanish :) 
Thanks for the kudos on the lyrics, I'm glad you found them funny. I do love where I live...it's amazing!

This is a refreshing listen,uplifting.
Seems like a very nice place to live. 
Really nice vocals throughout I really like the rap.
I'd love to get a rap in my songs.
There's a lot to like here.

Well done.
It's either this or that, then again it might be the other. 

I can promise you a future of slow decline.

And there you have it.

Thanks for having another listen Skub. I was wondering if inflated genitals would be over the top, but so far so good :)

I always look forward to your reviews Alan and this is no exception, so thank you. I'm humbled by the Joni Mitchell reference and had a good laugh about the "sense of humour and fun transplant". So glad you enjoyed the listen.

thanks Sandeep, for your kind review. I hope everyone comes for a visit and I get a commission for each of you :) It's nice to hear that the song flows well and thanks for the kudos on the lyrics.

thanks Kevin, not sure if I'd call myself an intellectual, but thanks for the kudos. Thanks for appreciating the Hallelujahs!

Great vocals and harmonies

I appreciate the kudos on my vocals/harmonies. I'm always a little nervous about them.

This is a refreshing listen,uplifting.
Seems like a very nice place to live. 
Really nice vocals throughout I really like the rap.

Thanks so much @Rightly ... I'm really happy you liked the rap. I'm certainly not a great rapper, but I could give it a try in one of your songs if you're ever desperate.
