What a piece of work is Rand! Photo by Tim Fennell. Let's not lie, maybe some of us went to see that four-hour, unabridged Kenneth Branagh version of Hamlet back when we were in grade six, then wore out our VHS copies of the perhaps over-the-top film, to-be-or-not-to-be-ing along with Ken.

Musically, this is exactly the same as Helen Love’s previous Radio Hits, Shifty Disco Girl, Does Your Heart Go Boom and the Peel favourite Girl About Town. And, like most other Helen Love songs, it mentions The Ramones, discos, beaches, and a story about a boy and girl in love.
