The Zephyr Song
Stephen Robinson
More ‘Under The Bridge’ than ‘Give It Away’ this is a chug-a-lug ballad that’s destined to become ‘our song’ at college discos this term. Aaah.

Early fans will be disappointed to learn that in telling the story of Ms California, “a runner, rebel and a stunner”, they’re continuing down the middle of the road that they seem to like so much, leaving their days of edgy funk rock well behind.

A new low for them? Quite possibly.
