We Used To Be Friends
by Alicia Kish
May 5, 2003
Courtney Taylor-Taylor has new hair. It’s a rather interesting cut – short at the sides and long on the top. Luckily, his lack of good hair has not precluded him from writing a brilliant pop song. Colluding with Nick Rhodes on the production (hasn’t Mr Rhodes been a busy chap of late?), Taylor-Taylor and co have somehow managed to follow-up the monolith that was ‘Bohemian Like You’ with a track that deserves more than just a telephone commercial in its honour. Catchy little hooks, hand clapping and a breakdown that rocks out big time serve as a tantalising precursor to the Oregon foursome’s impending album, ‘Welcome To The Monkey House’. Drool, drool.
