perpetual barf

This song always takes me back to grad school, where I pursued a fine young woman who loved this music...

 This is weird.This song used to get on my nerves,but now I kinda like it once in a while.

"The less I seek my source for some definitive, the closer I am to fine"

I'm not sure if a truer line has ever been sung.

Great album.

Great lyrics.

We be dancing...  love it...

 

Not one of their best.  Would rather hear Ghost, Joking, Chickenman, World Falls, Land of Canaan, Shed Your Skin...

OK, the lyrics are kind of cool.  I understand that they are both talented, I like at least one of their songs - yet, somehow, this. . .just doesn't do a thing for me.  Different strokes I guess.

I have that same reaction. Heard this so many times back when it was new, plus it was covered by so many local performers in my scene at the time (myself included, till I got tired of it). When I listen to it today with fresh ears, it's pretty cool, considering this was (I think?) their debut or maybe 2nd album.

I didn't get into many of their albums after this, and in general their lyrics are a little too earnest for me now and often make me cringe. But this album was pretty ground breaking at the time. We're all so used to them now...

That being said, I could go a few years without hearing it again :)  and I totally get folks who think this is gack-worthy.

My ears are still bleeding

Bumped up to a 7. I've ripped these ladies in the past, for whatever reason. Just LISTENED to this fully, without prejudice and distraction. The harmonies and vibrancy are quite something. I have a fresh appreciation for this tune, now. Perhaps I don't need to hear it for a while, though.

Only have ever like one of their songs: Sugar Tongue. All others remind me of fingernails on the chalk board.

This is good music.  Performed by two talented gals.  What the **** is wrong with you people?  I give it a 10 now because of you naysayers.  Indigo girls, fortunately, do not need your approval.

Dear God,

Please help  johnjconn, his ears are bleeding. The pain and clotting blood are preventing him from hearing the wonderful harmonies in this fine song.

Your humble servant,

PS. Please help marcello, he is confusing Lady GaGa with the Indigo Girls

Yes, it could be worse. Bad night, bad day, even RP is playing bad for me. Everything will be ok when this song ends.

I couldn't agree more, I get such a bad feeling in my stomach from this tasteless crap

Barenaked Indigo Girls?

One of my favorite tunes from a pair of skilled vocalists.

I stopped by the bar at 3 am to seek solace in a bottle or possibly a friend.  I woke up with a headache like my head against a board, twice as cloudy as I'd been the night before, and I went in seeking clarity.

Why is it always thus?

Ahhh, indigo girls. All my early-90's lonliness, excitement, love and angst, put together by two fine musicians. Love it!

The Malli Vanilli of our time.

 

There is so much better folk music out there than these trite tarts.
