I haven't been able to stay awake at either Ben Harper show I've seen. So damn boring, but this song is totally catchy and pretty cool.
The Redemption Song riff: a tease or imitation?

i think the message is "this is the kind of free country where you can say whatever you want but not do. ok kid?" |

GREAT POINT...sickening isn't it! I think of our outmoded marijuana laws and just cringe!
btw - I like the song a lot myself. (pimp) |

That's the kind of comment Luanne from King Of The Hill would make. |

You're right on there. It sounds like it must have been one hell of a show. |

great tune, whenever I hear it I think about US/Canadian laws outlooks on burn'n the bud. I cross the boarder everyday and, man, right now is a really really bad time to mess with that particular plant in the U.S. I've got two friends who, because of 1970's issues, are not allowed to enter the US. Man o man.
