There's a noise upstairs in the attic
It's the shuffle of worn out shoes
And the scent of the oil and brushes
Drifts down like a pale perfume

    A true "gem" of a song. It's one of those you can just loop.

    I think this song can already move mountains . This band was SO good back then... I have not heard any recent material so I have no idea if they have aged gracefully . But this CD is the first one I owned by them . I listened to it on the way home from the CD store and proptly turned around and bought everything they had and ordered the rest. It's between Icehouse ,Porcupine Tree, The Fixx and Ozric Tentacles for me as to my Fav band from the 80's ( I can't pick a fav ... Still undecided after 21 years ) And I think Brian Ferry could do an excellent job covering this song

    I've always thought this song would be brilliant as a David Bowie cover.

    Somebody should really cover this song... In right hands, it could move mountains!

    I like the obo in this track; sounds similar to something by The Dream Academy.

    This song is screaming for a remix... Hopefully I will get around to it one day. Definitely my favorite Icehouse song.

    I just simply love this song and particularly the album Man of colour. And Iva has one of the most extraordinary voices I've heard.
