Chasing the night

you got your man
rinsing him down

turning your head
to mine instead
gave me the eyes
burning like light

No makeover needed. The woman on the album cover is beautiful.
Nice happy little song, even if the lyrics are somewhat obscure. 
This reminds me: we need some The Sea and Cake on RP. 
A great little album.
Didn't stretch themselves much with the lyric, did they? Or the sound.
hey...Bagdorf & Rodney want their vibe back

Are there any other kind?

Yes, a bit reminiscent to me of Drive Somewhere (in some of the guitar parts I think).  Very nice song in its own right, however.

Such a lovely tune. Thanks RP! BBC are cool.

I live a mile away from Crouch End, in North London.  I probably wouldn't travel from another country to visit Crouch End, but if you find yourself in London, I'd definitely suggest that you make the time to visit Crouch End and look around.  It is a pretty cool part of the world - much more so than where I live, in Muswell Hill!  Cheers, pxd (and here's the Wikipedia link)

One in Jacksonville FL late 70's.  Disco contests and all.  Thankfully it closed and became a motorcycle dealership.  I would say it needed a lot of rinsing but my wife won some dance contests there before yours truly.  Best keep mouth shut.
 
Yep, I-95 & Baymeadows.  :)

There used to be a Bombay Bicycle Club on the west coast of Canada (Vancouver) aka BBC.

Some of its denizens did need rinsing down.


The one in Dunwoody (suburban Atlanta) was an Indian restaurant.

Or Travolta and Sam Jackson in Pulp Fiction?

Ate in the Bombay Bicycle Club in Cape Town in March - didn't need rinsing down afterwards, either.
Great band and soo young!
I like bicycles.
