You know how every couple has an "official" song for their relationship, well this is our unofficial song because she got to pick the "official" one and I just don't think R.E.O. Speedwagon does our relationship justice. This strikes me as a brave comment to post, funny, but brave. |

I really enjoyed this album when it first came out.
Saw him live as well... good show.
It's been a while... I think I should give that disc another spin. |

Mine too! >>>lifted from Wikipedia "Strange Condition" is a song by American musician Pete Yorn. Produced and recorded by R. Walt Vincent and Brad Wood, it appears on his first studio album Musicforthemorningafter. It also appears on Yorn's 2000 Sunset EP as well as on the soundtrack to the films Me, Myself & Irene, 40 Days and 40 Nights, and The Sweetest Thing. Released as a single in 2002, the song peaked at #36 on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks. The single version features additional collaborative instrumentation by R.E.M. guitarist Peter Buck.<<<
I'm pretty sure this version played again tonight is from the Sunset LP or the single version, & not the debut LP. It just doesn't sound like the album version, and I listened "extra closely"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

This is an excellent song and all too often Pete Yorn doesn't get the respect he deserves. |

One of the first songs I heard on RP when I discovered the station by accident. Made me think: "Hey, this internet radio thing has a lot of promise . . . "

I remember buying this CD and Kathleen Edwards' Failer at the same time. For the next week or so, my "to do" list suffered greatly  |

I bought the album on the strength of hearing Strange Condition on Radio Paradise and I have to say that it was one of this years better purchases. ItÂ’s a really strong album in my opinion. |
