Average grade: 4.6
Anna: Hailing from the land of mediocreville, I'd say; nothing to get my frock in disarray, and nothing to really hate on. Me and my frock had an intense conversation and decided that the song deserves a ...
Grade: a frocking five
Danielle: Somehow, I feel like I'm listening to some psychedelic version of a cartoon theme song (in a good way). It's catchy as hell, so of course I love it. However, I feel the need to point out that these lyrics are the most un-sexy way to proposition a lady. Just thought I would warn all the guys out there; it won't work!
7.5/10
Ilse: Very much unlike Blaine's new haircut, I love this new song. It's typical Mystery Jets; sweet, catchy, poppy and just something that makes you feel good in a ‘Young Folks’-way; how can you possibly not whistle along? Not sure if the birds and bees with the STDs would feel the same though.

Craig: Cute, I guess, but far too sterile and straightforward for me. The lyrics are boring, the song structure is paint-by-numbers, and this style of pop has been done, done, DONE! I don't really listen to them much, but it sounds a bit like the New Pornographers... Zzzz. Nothing about this appeals to me. Down with boring, cheesy music!!
1/10
Linda: Oh, Mystery Jets and the anticipation that names adds to the song! And oh, what a complete and total fail! No serotonin being released in my brain as a response to this track...
3.7/10
Stef: I would’ve gone for a cleaner sound for this kind of tune. I mean, if you go with whistling, that kind of chorus, a do-do-do-do-woop line (or whatever it is), there is no reason to go this kind of muddled way. Then go pop all together. Also, I find some of images coming from the lyrics not terribly aesthetic.
2/10
