Rockhampton duo Busby Marou toured with Dolly Parton and Pete Murray last year, then toddled off to record this bland but inoffensive country pop single. The opening guitar melody is crisp and sweet, but the minute the strained, overly earnest vocal kicked in (Tracy Chapman-esque, but without the tragedy), they lost me. Way too sweet.
