Your word "ole" gives your statement a frikkin bad taste - as if you were the last person with the right to judge this song, as if the song were nothing but a fading "ol' " memory, nothing but a product that supersedes plastic! Three simple, unconspicious letters can make all the difference, I say, turning a seemingly correct statement into something that leaves a bad taste! I do not believe Gabriel's music means anything to you - not really! "Great ole album" - paahhh!!! |

33 very poor souls voted this song "1" (no kidding)! Freedom of taste or the terror of idiocy? |

One of my favorite songs of all time. Great bass groove, lyrics, percussion... Melody pretty much stands alone on the vocals. Everything Daniel Lanois touches I like... check out Spyboy by EmmyLou Harris if you like this.

Loving this set. I'm finding when I turn RP on if I like the first song the whole set seems to work. If I don't care for the first song, I often find the whole set such that I turn the squeezbox off or switch to sofaspace.
I dunno, it could just be that silence is more attractive to me these days - or it could be a symapatico si or non thing. Anyone else notice this?

Just announced he's going to play this album in it's entirety on 9/27 in Chicago (United Center) with the original line up (that includes Tony Levin!) - YES! .....honoring it's 20th anniversary. Maybe trying to rebuild his credibility after the last horrible album?!

I hate to say this (and sound like my grandpa, and then eventually like my pa sayeth), but they don't make 'em like this anymore...
This is just sheer beauty.

I've burned out on most of Gabriel's music, but this song never gets old. So excellent.
