There are the leaden drums, the clumsy transitions. Hey, let's just pull the plug altogether! (Actually, the guitar isn't that bad...let's call it a "5!") |

This is not very good. In fact, it's downright bad. BORING.

What a unique band; frankly I'd be a little creeped out if I woke up one day and everyone in the world suddenly loved Grandaddy. Fascinating song, very lovely. yes... i agree!!!!

I agree with you. And on ELO, you make a nice fine point. They did have some excellent moments - most of them were not the songs that became the "hits". I am thinking of their first couple of albums especially. Side One of ELDORADO is still a fave. From their latter period, "Mr. Blue Sky" is getting play again - and sounding good. It was not that successful in its time though, marking the beginning of the end of their commercial success. "Diary of Horace Wimp" was also a mid-charter, but a pretty good song.
Anyway, this Grandaddy really sounds good. I'm am interested in hearing more from them. |

I believe this song would be more likeable with better singing and without the digital arpeggios....

The constant oscillating is profoundly annoying.

Irritating production kills what is a pretty decent tune

Nice idea to use the sound of a skipping cd. After sampling vinyl cracks, it's a logical next step.
