You are quite welcome, KurtfromLaQuinta...  thank you for uploading such great stuff...

this song was originally released in 1993...  love it...

This song does not make me want to bother checking out their other songs. Is this supposed to be a good song by them? BLEH

Well thank you Mr. tuma!

This song is soooo good for the ears...

and thanks to KurtfromLaQuinta for uploading this years ago!

This is what I think the song is about—

Following Feuerbach, his mentor until 1845, Marx sees the true analogy in religion. In religion in general and idolatry in particular, what are no more than productions of the human brain appear as independent beings with a life of their own. Just as gods are inseparable from their human creators, so fetishism is inseparable from the production of commodities.

Nice sound. 

Sounds a bit "Stone Roses-ey" to me, but I dig it.

Looks to me (at least by the dates on the comments) that this song gets airplay on RP about once a year. Would love to hear it much more often.

LOVE. Please play more CW!

Hmmmm.... I give it a 7 on first pass, Dick.

Yet another obscure band I've never heard of before RP, that I may need to check out.  I've LOVED everything I've heard so far on this album.  Hell, I think I'd buy just for the CD cover alone!

I agree. I didn't discover them until they'd broken up already but have greatly enjoyed both those albums since. I also love "Little Muscle" from one of the later albums.

Catherine Wheel was one of the best and most under-recognized/appreciated bands. Please give them a chance, listen to Chrome and Ferment... Black Metallic is possibly the greatest rock song of all time.

Thats what I thought my first couple listens!. CW songs grow on you more than any other band I think.  Maybe that's why theyre such a cult band.

"Judy Staring At The Sun" is the best Catherine Wheel track I've heard, and it was made better because of Tanya's voice.

I really miss Belly.

8->9

Now this here is one of the very few that truly baffles me, from all the great selection at RP. I saw this band live at CU many years ago, opening for Belly. Didn't like it or get it then, and still feel pretty much the same. Just noise and dispirited singing, to my ears.

I remember seeing them at the second HFFestival in DC way back when. Great band.

Is it possible to give this more than a 10?? More more more more more Catherine Wheel. One of the most underrated bands,ever.

...More CW please....

CW songs should not be rated until after a few listens.
