"Still Burning" is still  great work, but the first solo album of Scott is better for me, Bring´em All In.

I love the Waterboys, but I concur - this is crap.

Kind of dissapointing - because its got a great guitar tone...and then it sounds like someone trying to (poorly) perform a caricature of Bob Dyllan ala Blood on the Tracks.  The lyrics are just too slow, simple and over emphasized for me.

Wow.  This is one of the single most horrible things I've ever heard on RP.

Bill, did you lose a bet or something?  {#Lol}

Truly the worst song I have heard from RP.  Just crap.  And I am a fan of RP's choices usually.  I kept waiting for that "thing" that RP knows that I miss....that part of the song that grabs you.  Nothing from this song.  I really can't stress enough how bad this song was..haha.

I think people are being a little hard on this song. It has a Nick Drake crossed with a more sophisticated Billy Idol thing that sort of works.

If this is one of the better ones, I'd hate to hear one of the worst.

Geeze.  Sounds like a geeky 16-year-old trying to get laid.

Completely agree. Very sophomoric.

He's trying to be edgy, but just saying you have a dark side doth not a rebel make. ...nor do the rather tame guitar licks. They sound too clean. This sounds like a more finished version of a song he played at his high school talent show.

Man I just can't believe how Tina Turner is still just rockin' it out like this. All you divas need to stop 'n take a look.
