The second single to be lifted from Half These Songs Are About You, ‘Girls’ was never going to match the simplistic genius of the ‘The JCB Song’. Though it holds its own visually (the video is a stroke of Karni’s and Saul’s genius), it drops the ball in terms of hummabilitiy. Still, John Hammond’s vocals are as easy to fall in love with as ever – he sings with a raw passion and his distinctive accent implies there are no concessions to anyone here.
