This is perhaps my least favorite song in the history of the world. It is currently in competition with My Humps or lumps or whatever it is by the Black Eyed Peas.{#Puke}

It's well worth spending your money, sure!
You'll soon get into their music, and become a horse yourself... At least I did with a lot of my friends (both of them :) 
And go get and see them. I'm going to see them at Pinkpop (the Netherlands)

I know, down to my very marrow, that I'll always love this song, it will always make me shush everyone around me when it plays, and it will always cause one long, constant shiver from my head to my toes.

It is not that the song is all that horrible on its own. Just when heard a lot, reminds me of The Outfield which of course got way overplayed in the 80's just as this band is on RP.{#Yes}

What are you talking about? In case you have difficulty with reading comprehension, I was defending this song, "The Funeral", which is not from the '70's, nor a hit. 

 

It may not have charted, but it was a commercial success.  Check out #67.

Adroc, please step out of your 70s hits playlist world. There are many more bands than the Beatles, Paul Simon, Pink Floyd, and Tom Petty. Grow a little.

In case you haven't noticed this is one of the rare songs with 7.5+ average enduring well after 400 ratings.  You're obviously not capable of drawing your own conclusion from that fact, so I'll spell it out for you: The majority of the RP community enjoy hearing this song, and Bill would be doing us a disservice by removing it from rotation.

Maybe you're the one who should be sticking to your personal playlist and giving us a break from your narcissistic and asinine comments.
 

Yes, you are quite correct, I rarely actually listen to RP except that I have to during work because it is the only internet radio station that plays through my works firewall, the only good one anyway. I do like RP, but much prefer my personal library as you state only I cannot play that due to NSFW. Having said that, I love the forum and song comments so I will continue to post narcissistic and asinine comments of that you can depend.{#Cheers}
