Amen. As the song admits: Nothing to say. For some reason, their fans seem to think this is a virtue. Empty-headed? |

Really don't know much about Tull do you? The first three albums get almost no air play. The Clear Channel/AOR approach is to play "Bungle in the Jungle", "Skating Away (on the thin ice of a new day)", "Aqualung", "Locomotobreath", and "Thick as a Brick". Notice that this song is NOT on the list. That's what makes RP great, deep cuts from bands AOR has played to death. |

As Bill just said, interesting vote distribution: trimodal one could call it. I wonder, if it will stay like this when more votes than ~60 accumulate. I myself don't know where to put my vote, yet.

Bill, interesting observation on the flat spectrum of responses to this song ... whatever it means. This is a nice feature that I enjoy looking at.

Damn, the comments on this one are just bucketing in! Reminds me of when I was a bug-eyed, adventure-seeking teen who wondered what the hell this life was all about... !

I do not understand this station's affection for Jethro Tull. If I wanted to listen to crap like this, there are any number of classic rock stations in every city in the United States to tune in to.

Well my vote is this works. I like it.
Well said. I also love Tull. |

"Wow", I thought, "That's really bad even for 70s prog rock. I wonder which misguided noodlers are responsible?". No surprises there then.
