It is because there is too many people in NYC.

I like MMJ, but this particular song comes in somewhere below country. . .

Even if I don't really like country - this song just doesn't sound like country - when I find some country song here it's almost everytime a great song.

This song here reminds me strongly of some Runrig songs, especially the guitar sounds like played by MacDonald.

I generally don't like country and western music but I'm amazed at how much alt country I am enjoying here at RP:  Neko Case, Calexico and My Morning Jacket.  And yes, I like the way he sings!

I was definitely digging the edgier guitars on this.  Next time, I'll have to pay more attention to the vocals...

Bill must be getting himself jacked up for the weekend.  He's really playing some music that has me turning up the volume here at the office.

He plays a song, it completes and I turn down the volume because I think the next one will be a dud, BUT NNOOOOOO!

The next one's even better and I turn it up again.

Great Thursday Bill.

Thanks!

Hah... totally agree.

My ratings are VERY top heavy... just never feel the need to rank something I utterly hate.  This one just isn't good though.  Lots of folks here like it so, more power to them.  Can't like everything here...

So you continue to remind those of us, ad nauseam, who enjoy this band.

Along with the "a-wee-ohm-bohm-bohm" dancers, who stood in solidarity with the singers.

Offensive to the ears in every way.

quite a statement! i thought i'd see more gripes about how different their studio stuff is (which is also great) now i can't wait to see them live
love to my Kentucky homeboys YEAH!

This is a kick ass band!!!!

What a great stretch of music, I was really struggling to get motivated at work, now I feel uplifted, thanks Bill

Man, they are a great band live. You'll probably like them better if you see them live first!

These guys can sound kinda wimpy in the studio, but I LIKE this live version!!!

MMJ puts on an amazing show. I saw them open for Foo Fighters back in 2003.

...they put on a better show than the Foo Fighters.

That washed the Cohen out of my ears just fine, thank you.

Cheap shot.

Great live band. Check them out on ACL Music Festival DVD.

Yes, I agree your opinion is rather pointless and uneventful. Thanks for it!

If I'm not mistaken the 'studio version' was acutally recorded in a grain silo.

rather pointless and uneventful...

Totally. I saw them open for Pearl Jam. Incredible band(s).

seeing them live will change your life.

In 20 years of going to live shows, this band was the best. A must see. Great way to end the day.

Sure, I find I prefer the studio version, but I also dig that RP is putting this out there just to give us something we maybe haven't heard before, and I sure as heck haven't heard it on local airwaves radio.
