Oh, I can hear it, but it's so deep it's meaningless.

Funny... It's causing me to want to have a movement too.

Yup, that's the only lyric I remember. Not a good sign. Sounds like a bad video game. |

Is this the lowest rated song on RP?
It reminds me of something you'd hear on a satire of indie film makers.

Why does this keep getting played? I've never seen a song actually get such airtime on RP with an average rating so low -- and such a dearth of 8s and 9s and 10s.

Just the opposite for me. I think this was Joni's best album (and Prince agrees)! This is the only weak track on the album; not sure why RP chose it.
Agreed. Why doesn't he ever play Edith and the Kingpin? Or anything else from this album.
I think Bill secretly dislikes Joni, so he plays this to antagonize Joni fans and support Joni haters.
And Prince? He is not qualified to play music let alone opine on Ms. Mitchell! |

Not my fave Joni, but she stretched her horizons.

I wonder how many of those who are trashing this gave White Stripes a pass for their "innovative" tripe played earlier on RP. Just curious

Not for the faint of heart, that's for sure. I'm glad I'm not alone in considering it "Godlike," though. 10 of us are happy right now. Thanks for playing something from this magnificent album!!!

This is my favourite Joni album and the only one I've ever bought. Probably too jazz-oriented for most folks. But not me.
