Annotationen
Im NME wird «I Can’t Explain» so beschrieben: Es sei ein hämmernder Shuffle-Shaker mit surfartigen Gegenharmonien hinter dem Haupttext. Es ist heimtückisch und beharrlich, mit einem fesselnden Schlingern – eine Art Mischung aus Mersey- und Surfbeat (NME 15/1). Der Haupterinfluss dürfte allerdings You Really Got Me von den Kinks gewesen sein, das knapp vier Monate vorher herauskam.
