Personally speaking, one of my top pop songs of the '90s. It gets better with every listen and I'm left wondering why it didn't blow up the charts.

Perhaps their best single, and that is saying alot

I'm realizing, after a recent bout with the SFA catalog, that in that whole 90s/00s pantheon of psych indie pop or whatever you want to call it... Flaming Lips, SFA, Polyphonic Spree, etc. that the Super Furries are the most relistenable because.. well, their songs work REALLY well with kids! I don't have kids, but (ok occasional naughty words aside) SFA -- especially with all the colorful Fowler art -- had a good decade run of indie pop for kids... which is a bit of an underrated quality. I don't think kids would dig on Flaming Lips or Mercury Rev or the Spree nearly as much.

Classic, probably their best single. When the Singles collection came out, one newspaper review (can't remember which) claimed it was the only weak moment on the album, what the hell?!

Pssh! What do they know?

Possibly my favourite single ever.

Possibly. It might not actually be, but hey...
