I envy you - had to mute it because I ran out of patience. I know it's coming, but in the end is it worth waiting for? Would probably rate higher than a 2 if I could stand the monotony long enough. My loss? |

LOVE this song! Still great after all these years. I know it from the compilation Wall of Sound Presents: Telle
Heard it on KEXP radio 9 years ago and picked up the disc back then. Fun compilation.

The percussion reminds me of RJD2's "A Beautiful Mine", played in the opening credits of AMC's "Mad Men".

Not their best song in my opinion but great live.Seen them twice now but they play a lot in their home country (Norway) and seem to tour here in the Summer.
I'l give this one a 6 but the album is an 8.
