Three people simply said Grand Prix, as well as the following comments leaning towards the Grand Prix sound and/or a bit less mellow than Howdy!:

• Scarlet Rigby, "More rockin'-in style of Thirteen and Grand Prix. Seems like they keep moving futher anyway from that sort of sound. They're getting too mellow in their old age! ;)"
• 'Dric, "The crunch of Grand Prix with the hindsight of Howdy."
• Tigerboy, "a bit rockier, somewhere between Bandwagonesque and Grand Prix"
• Phil, "A Bit More Up And At 'Em"
• Georgia, "More of the same great songwriting with a little harder sound than Howdy."
• Alex H, "Grand Prix/Thirteen/SFNB mixture, a bit rockier than Howdy! Come on guys!"
• Brian Saunders, "Back To Basics, Bandwagonesque crossed with Grand Prix with a bit of SFNB. Hopefully a huge worldwide hit for the guys!"

• Antaris Duffy, "Whatever they decide it should sound like."
• Doug Brown, "Themselves...no strong opinion...its the evolution of TFC which keeps the interest going."
• nlc, "They can do whatever they like, and I trust it will sound fantastic!"
• Jocelyn, "I enjoy hearing TFC's styles change with each album. I'd like to continue to be happily surprised."
• Sandra, "Hoping they will retain that gorgeous pop sound they are known for."
• Eythor Sverrisson, "Just the way they are."

• Pierre Gouin, "A live album would be perfect."
• Cody Gorman, "more country!"
• Venetia, "mellow."
• Daniel, "Like the BSides from the Dumb Dumb Dumb single."
• Garry, "Grand Prix/Howdy material."

For the uninitiated, explain why you love the Fannies so much:

• Scarlet Rigby, "Because they just have great melodies and lyrics. It's a beautiful combination of both rock and pop. Plus, they seem like they enjoy making music and performing for their fans."
• Tigerboy, "They're just a bunch of normal guys who write extraordinary pop songs. A fanclub song can push you to the point where you want to tell somebody that you love them...and mean it."
• Johnathan Chan, "Timeless music, breath taking harmonies. The more you listen to them the better they get. I can surely say I'll love them 50 years from now."
• Cody Gorman, "Unmitigated fun. You can hear their smiles through the music, just a great bunch of guys…"
• Brian Saunders, "Music is to be enjoyed, not popularised. TFC are one of the few, very few, bands who can still call themselves fans with guitars. A song for any occasion, a tune for any mood, words cannot express the depth, emotion, harmony and, sometimes, humour of TFC's glorious music. Listen and all other bands will fall upon their knees."
• Debbie, "They write the perfect pop tunes with unabashed harmonies that make your skin tingle. And because of their normality, basic fellas making the most perfect tunes. I think they'd be the same no matter their level of fame."
• Doug Brown, "In one word...honesty. Coupled with their integrity which has seen them shy away from cheap publicity and concentrate on writing music which they like...and we love."
• Sonia, "I've never had a sad moment listening to the band - they never fail to bring a smile to my face."
• Weetzie, "...when i tried them on, their songs fit like a glove and shed some light in my heart."
• Christopher A. Myers, "They're still playing catchy pop rock songs. They've broughten that wonderful sound of the late 60s and 70s into a sound of their own that neither rips off the old, and have not fallen into the rap/rock trap."
• Alex H, "Well, firstly, I noticed their music, then also that their lyrics are consistently brilliant and true to life, you'll notice even more if you read some of them. They seem a great bunch of guys and were amazing when I saw them live. There's no other band like them, many try to imitate, which can only be a compliment to themselves."
• Paul Miller, "They're brilliant. They've always been so excellent and entertaining live. They write brilliant songs and I'm assured they are all a lovely bunch of fellas."
• Phil, "Needs No Explanation."
• What was Mike Cottle on about!? "Brian Wilson fronting Sugar !?!?" (that's what he said...)
