This came up as a PSD... great choice. PSD! :)

I like everything about this song except for the female vocals, which make me want to claw my eardrums out with a rusty spork.

It does take a bit of time to get what Martyn Bennett is trying to do (and why it is awesome!) but I was genuinely surprised to see how low a score this song has. For a radio station with a genuinely diverse playlist, its listeners sometimes come across as pretty conservative. I'm just glad that Bill plays what he likes and doesn't pay too much attention to our opinions!

...hey, martyn bennett on RP, cool!..

Interesting. After the song ended I heard Bill's comments, and checked the song page. My initial response to the song was to clap along with the rythm, so I was quite surprised to find the general dislike. I hadn't even noticed the voice. I had to listen to a youtube version just to understand what everyone was complaining about.

thanks bill—made me turn volume WAY up—-I'd like more of this kind of movable music—-and NOW 'dirty knife'!, another fav—-thanks for all you do to keep it MIXED

Ha!  Just heard Bill express his appreciation for this artist, which prompted me to look at the ratings.  Yeah, strong feelings!  I can see both sides.  I had to turn down the volume, but loved the all-out-there exuberant performance. 

I absolutely LOVE this song. It's best in a car, really loud, but then, you may get a speeding ticket. Can't help but to MOVE when it comes on.

Wow — this is the lowest rated song I've ever seen on RP! And it deserves it — it sounds like it was literally painful for the musicians to create it.

One of the true godfathers of Celtic dance fusion.
Is, and will always be truly missed.
For anyone wishing to get 'in' on this act,
go get 'Bothy Culture'.
This song is a good representation of a truly gifted individual.  
Awesome!
 

I'm actually diggin' it. I like the folk instruments. But it's just on the edge. I can understand why so many people find it grating.

First time I've had to turn off Radio Paradise.  Please don't play this song again.

Nice!

I like it.  Not love it, but I'm glad this song, and songs like it are in the playlist.

Just had to add that because of Bill's comment. 

I second it - like fingernails on a chalkboard

Ick. My internet browser actually crashed while this song was on. A coincidence? Probably not.

Single most irritating song I have heard.  Please make it stop.

Not sure what this is.....hummmm

LOVE IT!

This is terrible.

shit on a stick.

Fingernails on a chalkboard is more soothing.

I love this song!!! It's been so long since I've heard it.  Wayy cool!!!
(Some may disagree ;^)  )

IIRC, somebody had a barfing emoticon response to go along with it!
