      still, criminally under-promoted in the US. got a song catalogue loaded with monster hits but as people can't take the humor the boys infuse into their shows, critics and listeners took pleasure in panning them. I suppose they preferred the band to be cutting themselves, gettin into bar brawls, taking themselves too seriously. Nope. That's not the way they do things. No matter.

    I HATED The Darkness when they appeared. I was done with rock as a jaded GnR-type rock-loving twentysomething. Now, at 45, more mature, I adore it. Much because of Justin and the guys' attitude, and I've realised they have kept the rock alive all these years. Justin Hawkins rides again had a lot to do with it also - so much respect for him and the guys!

    An assault my defenses systematically failed to withstand
    'Cause you came at a time
    When the pursuit of one true love in which to fall
    Was the be all and end all
    Love is only a feeling (drifting away)
    When I'm in your arms, I start believing (it's here to stay)
    But love is only a feeling
    Anyway
    Oh, the state of elation that this unison of hearts achieved
    I had seen, I had touched, I had tasted, and I truly believed
    That the light of my life would tear a hole right though each cloud
    That scudded by
    Just to beam on you and I
    Love is only a feeling (drifting away)
    When I'm in your arms, I start believing (it's here to stay)
    But love is only a feeling
    Anyway
    Anyway
    Love is only a feeling (drifting away)
    And we gotta stop ourselves believing (it's here to stay)

    THESE DUDES DON'T GET HALF THE CREDIT THEY DESERVED SINCE THEIR DEBUT AND UP TIL NOW. While, in my opinion, Rock and Roll has been watered down and/or phased out, these dudes STAYED TRUE TO THE SPIRIT OF ROCK AND ROLL and make some DAMN GOOD MUSIC. This song might be the best song they ever did and Permission To Land is an ICONIC ALBUM to be listed among all the greats.

    Permission to Land has always been like a Time Machine back to a lovely time of my life. Lovely, but a difficult listen at times.
    I’d just left school when it came out, I’d left a horrible place where I was bullied mercilessly every day by my own cousin and ‘friends.’
    I’d finally left that behind and started college studying animal management and I made new friends and it was just like a breath fresh of air… things were good at home too! For a change!

The day when the world knows will come and you will receive all that is due to you for the masterpieces that you create. When all else becomes totally shit.

    Still the best vocalist I think I've ever heard, right up there with Freddie Mercury! Justin is my vocal Idol!

    I got to see these guys last night in New York at Terminal 5. What an experience. My girlfriend was with me and we had so much fun.

    Man The hairs on my neck stand up every time I hear this song... I get goosebumps every time he sings the chorus. This song sums up the relationship I had with this girl...

    Last note of guitar solo to middle finger at the drone. Most awesome shot in any music video ever
