Everyone's Having Fun Tonight -- with this album!

"I own all of Eytan's albums, which are consistently excellent, but this has to be the best yet. As usual, Eytan weds humorous, witty lyrics to impossibly catchy melodies. The highlights for me are "She's Looking Better," "This Song," "Bad Bad Luck," "Don't Gimme That Look" and the title track.
If you like early Costello, Lowe or Crenshaw; if you like the Smithereens, Evan Dando, Jonathan Richman; if you like music - period - then you have got to get this album."
Great Name for a Great Album!

"I have been listening to Eytan Mirsky's new album now for a few weeks and I am really enjoying it. I like all the tracks, but if I had to pick some favorites, I would pick "If You Wanna Save the World", "Everyone's Having Fun Tonight", and "She's Looking Better(now that she's not mine)". Ooh, and I like "Let's Just Start With Goodbye" also - it's 'pop'py with a twist of country and western thrown in. A very fun album, just like the rest of Eytan's work. Check this guy out!"
Great "Power Pop"

"I found Eytan on the IMDb (internet movie database)while reading a review for Todd Solondz' new movie. I tracked him down through his website and was lucky enough to purchase all 4 of his CD's through Amazon. He was kind enough to send me a personal thank you email. His music is truly amazing. How I've never heard of him is beyond me. This, his fourth album is my favorite although each has its own great qualities. He is a witty lyricist with a great sound along the lines of Dave Edmunds, Elvis Costello, The Rubinoos and Rockpile. I actually bought the CD's without hearing a single cut...just the titles of his albums/songs was intriguing enough to make me buy them. I would love to see him live...(so if you ever come out to San Francisco Eytan let me know). I will be there. Buy all of his albums. You will not regret it. I am definitely "Having Fun Tonight!""
