Boys Don't Cry & Friends – Don't Go Jumping With Frogs * Single of the day * release date 21/2/2011



This is probably a Marmite song, I love it, you may hate it. Don't Go Jumping With frogs starts off sounding like some whimsical nostalgia trip, but don't be fooled its going somewhere else. It sets up some interesting juxtapositions lyrically and musically that will make you prick up your ears.

Apparently Madonna was a big fan of their first hit, I Wanna Be A Cowboy, but that was back in 1986 ! Perhaps they need to send a copy of this to Lady Gaga to see if they can repeat the effect.

  1. I agree Boys Don't Cry and friends especially Nick Richards rocked then and rocks now. It would be nice to see a man and band that has been successful for so long get back in the public eye in a large scale event such as with Madonna or Lady GaGa
