I'm just a stranger
With a twisted smile and I'm wondering, ah
Your heart is in danger
Come close now, let me tell you a lie

Wild child
You got me running through the turnstile
Baby, come with and I'll make it worthwhile
You're gonna get my love today, yeah

You are a sweet dream
With a tender heart and beautiful smile
But things aren't what they seem
So I'll let you go and dream for a while

Wild child
You got me coming outta exile
Baby-girl you know I'm liking your style
You're gonna get my love today, yeah

I just wanna hold you at the end of every day
Girl, I wanna please you, oh, I'm needing you to stay
The sun is gonna shine if you would just come out and play
Baby, won't you show me your wild child ways

Wild child
You got me running through the turnstile
Baby, come with and I'll make it worthwhile
You're gonna get my love today, yeah

Wild child
You got me coming outta exile
Baby-girl you know I'm liking your style
You're gonna get my love today, yeah

Am I the only one who prefers the earlier material?



nope. you're not alone, i really liked their earlier material a lot (not that i don't like their more recent stuff, i do.) this one is getting on my nerves - played too often.

A fan for sure, but this track is fading on me and not as compelling as I thought originally. There are better tracks on the album.
Fantastic band and seriously great groove!
Black Keys. Please come & play @ Lucca Summer Festival. Tuscany, Italy. PLEASE! ❤️
Everyday this has to be played?
yu k
groovy!
I don’t care what y’all say…. I love this song.
Hey Bill, some back to back Akron fellas ....... DEVO, and Black Keys. I get it !!
I used to love this band, but I hit burnout! ...too much of a good thing!

Both of you are right on the mark. These guys are so derivative and beginning to bore me. Almost like AI music.


If an AI program made a parody song, would it be "Weird AI"?

Not a band. 2 guys with a recording budget.
21st century Troggs, Wild Thing ripoff
One of my favorite new songs. 
this song has joanjettroggskinks derivative vibe
pretty much Bill's fave recent album and song.  
So many great influences packed into one band!

I'm hearing Joan Jett in the guitar riff.  Put another dime in the jukebox, baby.

Just some good old rock & roll.

Definitely.  great album, with some hooks that dig back into the memory banks.  Very enjoyable, though.  Definite value for money purchase.

Yep. Had to raise my 7 to an 8 'cause I'm sitting here at work just a'noddin' along to the music...
Nicely produced, too.

Like “aluminum rock” comment. And it’s a new album! Something to look forward to. 🙏 RP. X

!nice groove!
pegged it as Keys, but noticed I'd never heard it before. New stuff!
Just cruises along nicely. A good sound for the highway. Worth adding to the playlist.
