@g-e-m: Heh, thanks... stilll the problem with my near complete lack of singing ability, but once I brought the key up three semitones, it didn't come out too badly. You really don't wanna hear the first attempt! :)

@amilliontinyarchitects: poppies... hmmm, yeah, you're my heroine, Holly!! :p

like the extended bridge that starts here

really like the verses... they have kind of an Elvis Costello feel to them... maybe the faux-syncopation?  Awesome stuff, Matt.

makes me smile, one up! :) liking the percussion, great vocals as well!

Nice happy-joy feeling, and that chorus military march vibe really caught me off guard in a good way :) Very "human" and intimate, liked muchos.

nice through here, snare is great, bass is nice a punchy, the retron ended up sounding very chip tune, nice

Like old prog rock ...  It could be a bit more rock-ish , there is a still lot of space in the mix for one more dirty guitar ;p

There's less ReTron than I intended - ultimately I had to do what I felt was right for song, but it's in there somewhere! :)

Never Thought of You (That Way)

With infectious and highly melodic tunes, The Quixotes specialize in songs about abject misery. Straddling multiple genres including electronica, indie- rock, 80's pop and blues. The rather schizophrenically monikered Quixotes are in fact merely one Matt Black, a London-based singer-songwriter.
