Accidentally Kelly Street. Quite like Frente but that song is a crime against humanity

The room’s lit up like a black and white movie, The tv’s on, that’s what it’s for I think you’ll have to accept your error in the face of such charming lyrics.

Hahahahaha I actually went and saw Frente at The Gov in 2023 and they were just magic. I didn’t appreciate them enough when they first released music

Angie Hart has a wonderful voice, and she's still got it 😎

Absolutely incredible, she just stood there and her voice was beautiful and powerful. Reminded me of watching Adele in concert. They just have beautiful voices.

I once heard one of the writers of that song do it solo with an acoustic guitar and it was lovely and quirky. I think the video did it some irrecoverable harm.

I was at that shoot. Song was refreshingly different to some of the naval gazing sludge. Some good lyrics and talented artists. Video gave an over the top, hammy glimpse into suburban mundanity. An easy target for parody, which smarted deeply for some of the creatives.

I didn’t realise it wasn’t supposed to be parody!

Can concede that moment of the song is genius. But stand by my assessment. I will go and see them soon when they play my home town.

At the Prince of Wales Hotel in St Kilda, as you climbed the stairs, there was a mural of Andy Capp standing at a bar, farting the word FRENTE. I think a Fred Negro creation. I think many of us have a complex relationship with Frente, but have a big soft spot for them.
