Seconded on both counts. After listening to RP at work for a couple weeks, I noticed one morning that it was "no longer available". Big Brother strikes once again.

An insightful comment which expresses much the way I feel. Thank feck for musical diversity. My greatest fear is that my employers will notice the incoming RP bandwidth and order me to stop listening as then my wage-slavery in this IT McJob would just be unbearable.

nicely put. i feel similar, often being inspired by simple things that another person may never even "see" or "hear" the way i do...

Never heard them before, but I love the vocals. At this point, I love ALL music, because life is becoming more restrictive, so I embrace anything that makes me feel free.

Beautiful chorus.

I really like this song and the whole CD and their Gran Turismo cd but she really sounds like a 12 y/o kid in this song....

Indeed.  Maybe bubblegum with ground glass and cyanide.   The Cardigans are one of the truly under-rated bands.  Just about everything they've done is brilliant.

That's the genius of The Cardigans. The music sounds light as air, but the lyrics are often viciously cynical. Definitely not bubble-gum fare.

That's the point - the lyrics are supposed to be subversive (like much of the Cardigan's library).  If you just hear the song and don't listen to the lyrics it sounds kind of happy-go-lucky. 
The song is about a nation falling to war and supporting death and destruction just so that it's not staying still.

God they nailed this

Kind of haunting...she has a very sexy voice too.

Pretty good tune; too bad that the rest of the album isn't as good.

"You're the storm I believe in"? A storm is a force of nature whose effects are destruction and mayhem - This is why you keep attracting the wrong type of guy.

I agree - very poetic

And even more diversity this morning. Nice move in selections from the sleepy early AM on the left coast here, to a more determined flow of the sonic plasma. Thanks.

I like the lyrics to this.

If you have young daughters, then you'll have an idea, whether you like it or not. I actually think Kelly's got a gift for singing; she just got caught in the machine. As she tries to break free from Clive Davis, maybe she can meet some new people or a decent band or songwriters and find something more interesting to do.

In all modesty,,I suggested the name to the band,"and then we have a blond bimbo that sings pretty well"!

From Finland across the border into Sweden Just shows ya music has no borders! Good back to back Bill!

They certainly Stormed into my life, best band outa Sweden since, I don't know when? Also love her solo work!
