I think her voice is awesome... passionate and soulfull and suits the instrumentation beautifully. After all this is Ricke Lee Jones not Cecilia Bartolli.

TOTALLY! Is she related to Hank Williams? ("Ramblin Man")
Eek.

Hey- if Janis Joplin and Bob Dylan can succeed, Rickie Lee Jones sounds great to me.

What terrible noises she is making! Music is quite pleasant but the caterwauling.......ay.

Lots of negative comments here. I admit, I was a little turned off by this track (and some others from this album) when I first heard it. This track has gorwn on me. I really like it - quite nice.

I came here to post that I really enjoy this song. It's nice to hear some new RLJ material.

I just don't get why so many people revere her. Personally, a particularly nasty strain of ebola would be a relief when faced with having to listen to her for much more than a nanosecond. Now, back to my cave.

Glad to hear her great voice again. She is still sounds as good as she did in the 80s. Why all the harsh comments? Give her a break.

Is she drunk or stoned?

Could she be both?

This song is not good nor is it pleasant to listen too. I will give it a low rating.
