	As a female singer/songwriter I am a huge supporter of other gals in the biz and I was drawn to this review for this purpose – support! After listening to this song several times I am left believing that Clea doesn’t really need my support as I’m sure she has the support of many already! There’s a lovely quirky vulnerable quality to Clea Roddick’s voice, a voice that entices us gladly into a song entitled “Rollerskate”, that she “loves to ride on.” Her interesting lyrics bring a pondering – are they serving as double entendres, allusions to a longing for a peaceful world harmony or is this simply a song about how much she loves rollerskating? I believe that it is all of the above, which then lends to a further belief that this is a well crafted & thought out song, despite it’s low-fi and almost casual approach. The be-bopping beat leaves me feeling somehow refreshed & her endearing voice with the cool bends helps soothe the “savage beast” (?!) within.
