The Stranglers Retro Rockets preview

[tht707]

I don't know I don't find Baz Warne's voice so suited to The Stranglers It took me quite awhile to appreciate Roberts, but Baz's voice is "low", don't know :-(

[headwork2008]

well done boys....keep going as for as long as you guys are around the charts are not completely full of crap music :)

[Elektrapunk1]

Bet Mr Roberts is smiling when he hears this.

[ynotyrrebrac]

I may well agree with the sentiment but its all been said before, and better, it starts off sounding like a slightly beefed up Run To You by Bryan Adams and never lifts off for me. I ve been a fan since '77 and caught them live in Folkestone a couple of years ago in fine form, this track is so a filler for the compo album, you can tell the heart aint in it. Shame, but cant blame them, The studios always insist on fillers for these albums to try and make us buy them so we have everything. !

[littlenem]

This is Great!

[gawd70]

This tune kicks ass,hope next rec.will be as good as the last one!

[CliveSlater]

Can't wait - when is the album due????

[Chevalblanc]

The greatest hits album spanning 1977 to 2010 with Retro R. and another new song is out March 1st. A complete new studio album is partly recorded but the band can't say when it's ready. Hope that this will be in late 2010.

[RBinblack]

Love this track, makes you think how disposable music is these days.

[daveroberts5]

Gr8 had baz a cold when he was singing ? March Liverpool Brum and Mchester Boogie Bring a Rat

[sickofbeingsick77]

[rockfrogger]

Can't wait for release day great stuff can't wait to see them live again,ROCK ON!

[bloater999]

Return to form!

[johnanthonyp]

Greenfield, to my mind still provide the most brilliant quirky keyboards. Rick who?

[Davejezz]

Excellent as always... You can't keep going as a band for over 30 years if you ain't got talent.

Can't wait to see them live in Glasgow

[ALTRENT900]

Great track. Amazing work considering they've been touring constantly.

Also can't wait for Glasgow.

[dnuydt]

Fucking great !!! See them in Belgium on 26th march 2010. The return of the meninblack, gretaer than ever...

[blackinjac]

The vocal is great , the sound is what we want from The Stranglers , we need to back the boys by downloading /purchasing etc

[baldieman4]

This has got hit written all over it - very catchy chorus.

[feniun]

i don´t like it.this song is very similar to the last record ones.

[nerobat]

As usual...

The Stranglers: THE BEST FOR EVER :-)

[Bearcage65]

Sounds great, can't wait for the whole track

[Chevalblanc]

Need to listen to the whole song (there are some interesting moments in the song not included in the clip according to an insider) but is sounds very promising. Great chorus!

JJ recently said "...to be honestly I don't know when the new studio album is ready, we've recorded a few tracks...".

[mrjamestherat1]

I saw this live at Leamington Spa and knew straight away it was a hit. Let's all badger our friends to download it on 22nd Feb as the Stranglers are well over due a number one single. Can't wait to see them live again in March!

[mrjamestherat1]

Saw them do this at Leamington Spa and knew straight away that this would be a big hit. Down to us guys - send out the word and get as many as possible to download and get the stranglers finally to number one!

[mcdermott0930]

There deserve to be back there in the charts with a new single like this!!

[waitwit1]

Another top tune from my fave band.

You go guys.

Another hit in another decade.

[jimbo1663]

fantastic its awsome

[ricknblack]

its a good tune alright,but the vocals are poor,hate to say it hope im proved wrong,long may they reign the best band ever....

[NeBlackCat]

Agreed. Would have better suited some JJ breathy vocals sung Big Thing Coming/Nice In Nice style.

[hcjc57]

I certainly hope EMI puts this out on Capitol in the USA, followed by a Stateside tour!  Cleminblack

[paddymonkeys]
