Bumped from 7 to 8. But I'm hypnotized so this may be against my will.

The beginning of the song sounds like "La Isla Bonita" by Madonna

Love the guitar work by the way




Love the drums & bass as well. Or well, pretty much all components but that's usually the first thing I notice and important for me.. Lovely production in general :)

Good Tune! I never heard of them before! Thanx RP!

As this song started I was expecting Madonna's voice to come on

Hearing overtures of Safety Dance, Africa, and even La Isla Bonita. And that's not necessarily a bad thing.

Yeah. If this were my daily diet, I'd die sooner than expected.
If it were my sound diet, I might even turn suicidal.

I don't know... three years later, I still don't hear The Hip Abduction too much outside of RP, but avocado toast...

That's fine, but what rating did you give this song? Asking for a friend.
Posted 3 years ago by Webfoot    [ Reply ]
The longer I hear the song, the more I like it.
Started the rating at 6 and I'm on 8 atm and it's not even over..

I like giving Tomansi shit for his rating-proclamation-only comments, though to be fair he is rather consistent in his style, and offers a unique if not incomprehensible method.

Long Live RP and kind-hearted-shit-flipping!!

The first time I saw the cover art, I thought "Hey, it's Tony and Sam" ... Get it?   

I dig the tune -- a strong 7 for the upbeat feel of the song, with the dreamy arrangement of vocals to innocuous lyrics (had to look 'em up elsewhere).

Initially thought this was some Whitlams I hadn’t heard before. Low-fi guy sounds so much like Tim Freedman.

"Hip Abduction" sounds like something you go to an orthopedic surgeon to have corrected.

Do like the song, though.
 

it is actually the movement of bringing the leg to the outside of the body laterally, so basically a side split is hip abduction :)

I'm pretty sure it's something I do at the gym! There's even a machine specifically for it.

Curiou. 3 back to back repeats incl Bill's comments between. The records stuck... the records stuck... the revords stuck...

voice reminiscent of the lead singer of The Whitlams (Australian band). Tim Friedman.

This is one of the reasons I like posting comments on songs....the last couple times this track has come on I've dropped my rating from 8 to 6 to 4, all because of how much I dislike that damn whisper intro.  I'll leave it at 7 for now....just need to remember to NOT listen to the first few seconds of this one {#Music}

LONG LIVE RP!!

woah! I love this song - I downloaded it somewhere a couple of months ago and have been jamming out to it, listening to in now on RP it is noticeably faster tempo....what the?
