The Cosmos Kids know a truth about rock ‘n’ roll that’s sparing in much of today’s music: less is most definitely more. “Fight for your Love” is the proof. 7 words drive this tune, “No I won’t fight for your love.” You might be inclined to think this is some obscure early 60s cover with its attention to the details of yesterday’s formula. “Twist and Shout” chord progression? Check. Handclaps at the bridge? Check. Simplistic lyrics over poetry? Check. The only thing that kicks this song into modern times is the vocal distortion, which I’m sure is the result of several Strange Boys binges.
