The Bird and The Bee – Heard it On the Radio
The Bird and The Bee‘s new album Interpreting the Masters Vol. 1: A Tribute to Daryl Hall and John Oates is a bit of a disappointment. I was hoping for more “interpretation” but for the most part these Hall and Oates covers are pretty pedestrian. Yes, it’s fun to hear Inara George singing “Maneater” and “I Can’t Go for That” but the novelty wears off pretty quickly after a couple listens. The highlight of the album isn’t a Hall and Oates song but actually their sole original track titled “Heard it On the Radio”. The song is tuneful and breezy and perfect for when you’re out and about on a warm, sunny day.
So for today’s RetroBlog – Song of the Day, here’s Heard it On the Radio.
When we first met it wasn’t what you said
And still I loved you like mad, I loved you like mad
When we first met, they were playing that song
And then it stuck into my head, stuck into my head
When we first kissed you made it to my list
And then I couldn’t stop myself, think of nothing else
When we parked the car they were playing that song
And then we turned it up to ten and started up again
Now every time I hear it playing I think of you
And those summer days
Oh, I can still remember when I heard it on the radio
Oh, but now we are September, come on, forget what we know
When you broke my heart there was nothing you could say
And still I loved you like mad, I loved you like mad
Now, when I think back it wasn’t what we had
They were just playing that song made it last so long
Now every time I hear it playing I think of you
And those summer days
Oh, I can still remember when I heard it on the radio
Oh, but now we are September, come on, forget what we know
