The Eyes.


Opinions?

Mine is that "I'm Rowed Out" is a great tune (although not exactly original) and all their other stuff is !@#$.

Agree? Disagree?

"You got a great suede coat and a soul like fire... you got all you want ya can't get much higher..."

Great first line. emoticon

Re: The Eyes.


I like 'em ! I cant say they was one of the greats as they never done enough material But I really like the stuff they did do.I think 'Youre too much'' was better than 'Im Rowed out' and I love the rawness of The Pupils album.Opinions? Theres mine for what its worth

Re: The Eyes.


I`m Rowed Out` is one of the greatest songs of all time IMHO,way better than `cant explain`,its really snotty and you can really sneer when you sing it,mind you i`m obviously biased .I love `When the night falls` almost as much,

Maybe it is better than the original, but without I Can't Explain, they couldn't have done 'I'm rowed Out.' Excuse me, I'm probably chatting !@#$ having had a drink. emoticon

oh noooooooooooooooooo........ (in a churchill voice)

Now that's a step too far. Great lyrics I agree, but better than "Can't explain"??? Nah no chance.

After they popped into my head and I posted this topic I went to dig out my Eyes EP and it's not there!!! I knew exactly where it was... maybe I've been burgled for an Eyes record?? emoticon
