The precision of the back beat is astounding. Indeed, a perfect example of songwriting and performing. |

Geeez, not one single complaining comment! Watchu thinkin? Okay, so let's get it over with:
"The guy can't keep a note, hate it hate it hate, was better when he didn't have a major company contract, overplayed, ain't the real stuff, repeating lyrics."
That should cover it. Oh, wait: "Texas sucks!"
No, just kidding. Instant 10.

Wonderful! Does anyone know who the woman singing is? As good as Ray was, she makes this song. And I must commend Musikala for the dancing picture perfectly in sync!!  |

My name is Jack, and I specifically remember crying when I first heard this song (I was about 5); it was in the kitchen of that old house we lived in on Mt. Pleasant. I remember my mom laughing and then comforting me.

one of my favorite childhood memories...playing this on a reel-to-reel tape on my mom's "hi-fi" stereo and dancing around the living room.

I always think of the opening sequence of The Fisher King.
"Jack Lucas, the face behind the voice." |

Maybe he meant Hit the Road, Jack.
My kids used to think the song was about a cat. . . hit the road cat. . . |

What's a Road Jack and why would anyone want to hit it? Methinks he meant Hit the Road, Jack.
Commas are essential, everyone.

Nevertheless, I hope Bill implements a little histogram some day, which shows how the distribution of the votes is.
Just hover your mouse over each point rating in the song score, aka "Rating Dist". It'll show how many votes were cast at that point rating |
