An Amusing Nod to mid-60s Pop
This pleasant little trifle will sound more than a little familiar to those who grew up with top40 radio in the mid/late 60s. Takes bits of The Byrds, a sitar, even a tiny nod to Herman's Hermits ("There's a Kind of Hush", shh), all sung in earnest sincerity.

The Dukes are actually XTC in disguise.
