The Darkness is back with a new single called "Jussy's Girl" that, to the best of my knowledge, has nothing to do with Rick Springfield. The single is catchy as hell and, while a little sad lyrically, is too much fun otherwise.
"'Jussy’s Girl' is a song about unrequited desires of both the flesh and the heart. Although one could argue that hearts are made out of the same stuff as flesh. You know what I mean though," said guitarist and vocalist Justin Hawkins.
"It's about an unspeakable longing, but sounds like a bloke walking around in his 501s on a sunny day. It's sad, but also carefree. Sonically we were aiming for somewhere between Def Leppard and Billy Ocean. Well, I was. There's a helicopter in it and an awesome guitar solo. What more could you ask for?"
"Jussy's Girl" is off The Darkness' new record Motorheart, due out November 19. Pre-orders are available here.
