Skull Snaps - My Hang Up Is You
Despite the slight cheese factor, I have a really good time with this song. Note the “Hang Up” theme that parallels The Supreme’s “You Keep Me Hangin’ On”. It also parallels that tune with a very similar individuated guitar riff (at 0:34), similar chord progression in a minor key, same “Motown” style drum beat with the snare on 1 and 3 instead of 2 and 4, and general feel and sophistication. Skull Snaps have that 1973 refinement, though, both in production and arrangement. Just listen, you’ll enjoy. -Ricky
