  • Song is played in 8/4, Bass is played along with Bass drum on the off, syncopated on the 1. And who cares, it's a nice song, enjoy the music, if you don't like what you hear or it irritates your obviously professional music ears, go listen to something else.

  • the cult

    fir wownem

  • Great song - Great songwriters

  • @craanbaI can see/hear what he is doing, but for example at 1:21, that kick/bass hit doesn't syncopate at all, it's on like 1/16 note or something and just irritates the ear.

  • @lexlawlessmusic get over it, it's just perfect the way it is...

  • @lexlawlessmusic my friend, the only ear thats being irritated here is ours with all your narrow sighted comments. Awesome post, thank you.

  • Something's wrong with the bassline, it's totally out of sync

  • @lexlawlessmusic its syncopation chap. he is putting emphasis on 1&

  • JJ will always be....They rule.

  • Saw these guys at the BAT centre in Durban just before i left for the UK in 1997. No Regrets. Being European, I knew the shallow waters would catch up. Lyrics reach us in different ways. Music is universal. Come back JJ. xx

  • This song always reminds me of my first ever online friend. She lived just outside Jo'burg and this was the first song she ever sent me. A long time ago now but I still remember her fondly.

  • saw these guys in kynser in 99, was an aweome gig........never forget it.

  • Reminds me of the inner conflict I faced about my sexuality and how other people would react.

  • reminds me of our holiday

  • Love it. I saw them New Years, back either in '95 or '96 or '97, it was at Roxy's in Melville. Anybody go see them, it was in Jo'burg. I went to school with Denholm (Benoni High) he was not with them then. For those of you that know him, I remember he would always spin his notebooks on his fingers and play with his pens or pencils on his desk or notebook ( just drumming away). I am a true fan and love the memories of the good old RSA. Thanks Guys!!!

  • Awesome song, old days, i need to get back to work. lol.

  • holy shit this brings back memories. i worked on their sound when they performed in umhlanga rocks easter '97. lead singer, art/ard matthews was awesome. funniest thing was the microphone kept shocking his teeth during soundcheck, lol. man i miss outh africa!

  • they're second to seether for me!

  • Zambian based in Brisbane, Australia. Made sure I had my "Best of Just Jinger" CD packed when I migrated to OZ. Listen to it whenever I feel like listening to really good music from the mother land.

  • This whole album is great. I've been listening to this album for years.

  • I'm leaving shallow waters,

    I'm leaving all my dreams of you,

    I can't go on, I want to run away...

    I think I'll go today.

    Tommorow, it won't help me at all,

    it won't help me at all.

    There's something, that I told you and,

    you don't know, that it's true,

    oh, that it's true now ...
