Song itself was good but what helps it is the contrast in tones between the female and male voice. The female's voice has that nice individual tone, I would imagine when she sings in various songs, she is instantly recognised/identified which is a very useful weopon to have as a performing artist. 6.5/10

Here is a blast from the past!

Probably my favorite song by them. Love the guitar melody and those drums that take center stage. 8.3/10

The first thing that comes to mind when hearing this song is that there could never be a Sex Pistols today...at least not one that would become this popular. The men behind the curtain would never allow it. Doesn't fit the narrative. Gotta keep these people asleep. We sure don't want them angered...

I think Green Day got about as close as anyone in recent times when they put out the song, American Idiot. And even that was somewhat tame in comparison. At any rate, the Pistols were a true punk band who managed to win over more than a few fans in their day. For putting out a ballsy, yet catchy punk song that dared to challenge authority, I give this an 8/10.

For someone who hardly ever listens to gothic rock, you've intrigued me with this tune.

The music is fair and fitting, but the vocals are kind of the captivating aspect, in a non-sensual way for me. It dominates the entire feel. Definitely worthy of praise with such a soothing gloom of a voice. and I'm not gonna jest when I say this guy could pull some heart strings. A serene song from a band I'll have to check out. Thanks for that. 8/10

Good steady bluesy rock number. JJ Cale has a unique voice that fits with the music. 7/10
