Now The Valkarys are claiming to be from Edinburgh but if this is true then surely they got there via the wild west with a quick detour through 60's Liverpool because judging by this tune i would have to say that is the conclusion I've come to.
It's easy to listen to songs and associate them with other bands you've heard and i guess this helps us all make a decision on if it's our cup of Orangina or whatever and so I'm gonna stick a label on this song just to give y'all an idea of where it's coming from so here's the tag line
There that should do it.
There is this nagging thing in my head that tells me I've heard this before by a hundred different bands and eventually it gets harder to tell one from the next with lyrics about trying to escape a girl and yet never quite being able to leave her behind, it's just gotta be something special to transcend all those before it, and despite a valiant effort this just isn't the song to make it.
And so The Valkarys 'Candy Girl' is a good if unspectacular effort that does show this band have some promise but they will have to forge a path that doesnt lead to obscurity and dissapointment like those before them (for some reason i'm thinking of The Stands!?!?).
Room for improvement.

'Candy Girl is like The Coral trying to mate with Scott Walker but falling out before they get to the bedroom.'
