I totally respect people's opinions on music - you can like whatever you want, it's all subjective. There is no right or wrong. But, for me, this song really grates on me. It feels very superficial and I don't find anything in it musically intriguing.
Tori has said the poppy sound of this song and the easy going chorus are supposed to trick people, since the verses are really full of some great stuff...
I mean, I know it's definitely not her best, and the saab bit creeps me out slightly, but the "so when I was out in the desert" bit has always resonated with me for some reason
Sort of...in fact it used a Lancia chassis form as a basis because it was a huge saving. This was modified by Lotus and produced in Sweden using different sheet thickness and tucking, welding and finishing processes. The result was the absolutely perfect balance.
Other than that very intentional 'short cut', the 'design' of the car is very much Saab, especially the detailed engineering throughout.
*WAY* too long to be a real commercial, and they always just cut the line mentioning the product for a real CM. "Drove my Chevy to the levy" for Chevy for instance, they kept looping that part. Found this amusing. ^_^
@JollyMunkie Yes, this song and most of the Beekeper are probably the most terrible moment in Tori's music. When this song comes up I have to skip it, too bad I have to skip the subsequent ones too...
YES!!

This song IS great though, with her money, maybe her SAAB turns into a ferry!
ophelianymph 3 years ago
Yes I love Tori and hear she REALLY believes in ferrys - woops I mean fairies or faeries or whateva
jjpme92un 3 years ago

Saabs lost it after the 9000...sorry ..it's a Vauxhall.

The 9000 was not designed by Saab. It was helped by a few other manufactures I think one of them was Lancia.

The only thing Im dissapointed about in the 9000 is that it soes not have a central ignition

I would purchase any Tori-approved product in a heartbeat. From dental floss to pesticide-drenched veggies. I mean that.

i was a big fan of saabs when they were owned and designed by Saab, they were so individual.

I can't disagree with that, but Ireland sucked and she deserved this. Hopefully she redeems herself with the next album.
