As a temporary Melbourne expat, it made me miss Melbourne - I was even thinking of St Kilda Beach fondly.

I love this song, it's a theme song for every teenager in Melbourne with the air kisses and cool beat. Keep swinging FWO! The last gig was FANTASTIC!

Caught you guys at Bar Broadway on Friday 13th. Absolutely brilliant! I bought your ep and haven't stopped listening to it since. Good to see bands being inventive and creative.

I heard this featured on Triple J this morning on the way to work (at about 2am). Instantly struck me as an amazing funky and fresh track with elements similar to Joe Jackson - whom I adore. Keep up the great work guys. I can't wait to hear more tracks! :)

wow! makes me feel like a gangster from the 1930s! makes me want to dance..if only there was someone home to dance with or if only i could actually swing dance! :-S check them for something a little less mainstream and a little bit different! love the inclusion in the lyrics of my hometown..maybe a future tourism ad? screw 'where the bloody hell are ya?' and welcome 'miss the melbourne way of saying goodbye!'

A great song and a cool arrangement, catchy as too! I agree, they are totally different to anything else on the unearthed site. There is another tune on their myspace that is great too! I have seen these guys at gigs and they're fantastic. This tune should get some air play I reckon! Good work Frankie Wants Out!

WOW! This is the best song so far from these guys, it has everything! Great ripping solo from the sax player, great drum intro, great lyrics and singing and great horn lines - so tight guys! These guys are sure to go places. They are great - give them more air play! Loving the Swing boys.
