It\u2019s a simple instrumental track, which basically adds as an introduction to the next track, \u201cOcean Song\u201d, a creative and fun song that could best be described as bordering on \u201cfolk\u201d and \u201csynth-pop.\u201d The melody on this song, as well as others such as \u201cWorking Man\u2019s Blues\u201d and \u201cThe Weight\u201d would surely get the crowd moving in a live setting. \u201cI\u2019m Gonna Keep On Dancing\u201d is almost a straightforward synth-pop song, but Innes\u2019 vocal delivery, as well as that of the background vocals, turn it into something more engaging than that. It seems that the majority of the songs on this album feature Innes trying to take the retro sound of classic synth-pop and adding his own modern flair to it. He successfully achieves this by using his voice and creative lyrics, and alternating their importance with the futuristic sounds of a synthesiser. If part of Jeffery Innes\u2019 intention of this project was to show he\u2019s capable of something completely different than indie rock by way of a psychedelic sound, then he has succeeded.
