An 'FM radio song'. What I haven't heard before, but what I expect from rp.

No, that would sound like the wind blowing through an empty stadium.

"I burn today"
Today, I am leaving North Carolina for BurningMan. I am driving solo after two back out's by my cousin and my friend. My cousin told me last week he was not going. Over the weekend my childhood friend said he would go. This morning before we are supposed to go, he calls me and says he is not longer going. It was funny. He told me," I can take this. I did manuvears in the Sinai. Its been a long time since I've bivouac'd."
What the fsck ever.
Even more odd was that before this Issac Hayes - Walk on By played. I am going to Burning man because I was married for nearly 20 years and I am now divorced. I am taking my issues and burning them in the sand. I got the last set of pics of her and put them in order. From the first set we took to the last set. You can see the procession. Anyway, its over now. When I get back it starts a new.
Big John I wish you the best. Enjoy the ride. |

I dont care that this is Frank Black, the song is still a bit too ho-hum for me, the lyrics predictable

I hope last year's BMan worked out so well you went again — sounds like an abrupt turn in your life. |

Big John Hope the trip was a rewarding journey. Must be a lot of the Crazy World of Aurthur Brown playing: "I am the god of hellfire and I bring you - Fire." |

You don't like the Pixies either, Excelsior. In fact, I don't think there has been a song on here that you've given a positive review of. Why are you here? |

I'm really glad I came across RP a couple of years back because on the whole the quality of music is excellent, and the taste really is eclectic such that every day I'm surprised, very pleasantly so, by the playlist. On occasions there are runs of tunes that are just stonking, so good that it stops me leaving work on time and brightens up the whole day. On rarer occasions, there are runs that are exactly the opposite and make even the sunniest day dull, and sadly this is the 10th number in such a run, the highest ranking in which has been a 4. I can take the rough with the smooth and there'll be some who'd sell their first born for the latest sequence, but I'm in danger of falling asleep at the keyboard here. C'mon, Bill and Becky, let's have some ZIP! Please!

Is that the lyric? Did he chop her up or something?
If you don't like him - say so. That lyric fits fine into the context of the song. But you're obviously not listening .... move along then.
I like Frank - although his insistence on rambling on about UFO's is a bit tiresome.
His songs are entertaining, they stand on their head a bit and do a couple of cartwheels instead of walking around congratulating themselves like some alt rockers do with their tomes of the day.
And another positive point - the boy can rock.
