Song of the Week: Adam and the Fish-Eyed Poets, Little Monkeys

I wouldn't call myself a big fan of Bruce Springsteen. But there's something about Kishore Krinshna's voice, very Bruce Springsteen though it is, that grabs you by the wrist. It doesn't beg you to listen - certainly not. It doesn't even seem to care.  It jumps along with a touch of techno, dark lyrics and I-don't-give-a-damn rock spirit (they've got that from Bruce too), but you get the feeling that they do care, that they are bothered. Because Little Monkeys is a good song, and you can't write a good song without caring about what you do.

7/10
