Really surprised and the harsh responses towards this song. It's not the greatest, but it's not *that* horrible either. All in all, I thought it was "pretty good".

Like most things in life, it could be worse. I'm not wild about this tune, however, it brings me to a point I visit often: Terrestrial radio is usually worse than RP's least interesting moments.


I doubt that the 20% misses on the site keep you from donating. Compared to most radio where there is at best one decent song per three hours we have it made here.

Now we have brit-pop's answer to Hootie and the Blowfish.

Yuck! Yeah, big miss here.

Porridge-music, but no reason to swear about it. It's not that awful... besides, I'm trying to clean up my language.

It shows a real lack of respect for others and a total lack of sophistication when one resorts to swearing in this forum. The one thing I have learned from this wonderful (for the most part) group of people is a profound sense of intelligence and insight into the artists that we listen to and comment upon. Jerseygirl is both insulting to the state of New Jersey and the female gender. Not to mention the human race. Pity.

Bill and Rebecca have really tried to get as many of us to give some money their way so they can keep us groovin and provide an honest living to boot. I have given money even when its tight on my end because THEY have opened so many musical doors for me and made me realize how significant my collection of music was prior to finding them on the internet.

Diversity is good.
Yea:what he said...KUDO's to Horstman!!!!!I guess Horstman is a he,If not would the screen name Horstlady???

Maybe you're young without youth,
or maybe you're old without knowing anything's true.

I think you're young without youth.

Is someone holding you at gunpoint and forcing you to listen to RP?

I'm no fan of this particular song, but your comments are ignorant. You're free to go back to terrestrial radio, where you can hear the same mundane tripe over and over again. Or, there's the magical mute button.

Fortunately, RP isn't run for one person's tastes, and it gives every peron who visits input regarding the playlist. So if you continue to reap the benefit of a varied playlist for free, then good for you. Do whatever your conscience tells you. If you're dumb enough to post such thoughts, however, then you deserve the flaming you get.




btw This song just went from 6 to 4
