She rhymes "back" with "back." Minus style points.

All three could certainly chase me off of that bed's edge!
Only the music is less sexy!

Betty Holly :)

HA! I thought this said JERRY LEWIS! The first phrase to come to mind was... la, la, la...nice lady!

I have the same reaction, I was singing along to Charging Sky in the car this morning on my way to work in the pouring rain.

YES!  Every time I listen to this in the car I have to sing along and I occasionally end up playing it four or five times in a row.  I don't know why, but this song just gets me every time.  LOVE it!

Holy CARP! That was really amazing. Her command of tone is stunning. Made all the more so by the no-budget production of the clip. Wonderful!

Thank Gawd he put on something good to wash the David Byrne/TH out of my ears..

worst song of a great album

Any gal that can work the phrase "a thousand beers" into a song is OK by me

Personally, I think it's a brilliant cover and a good tune as well.  I'm not sure what either of you find "terrible" about it.

Love this song and the album

it's jenny singing a duet with a puppet...

A harmless if forgettable 5. Good filler between the great stuff.

Thank you for playing this. Jenny Lewis & the Watson Twins are so great live!

Ho hummmmmmmmmm.......

Love these gals together love the artwork too!

Then you should see the inner sleeve, so beautiful in it's old Kodak simplicity and full of meaning. A feat rarely seen in these photoshop days. I kind of agree for the cover though.

Bumped it to a "9"!

The production is brilliant - so naive, innocent, and yet perfectly so. A band with the awareness of a cagey, sarcastic band, but the sincerety of an innocent folk singer.

great song. great performers. great music. all you negative nellies are blopops.

I'm really digging Jenny and the Twins. Yes they are really twins; Jenny and the Twins were on Letterman a few months back. Yes, the album cover is really freakin' creepy. The Watson Twins appeared equally creepy on Dave's show; it's obviously their schtick. Or they're just really creepy; it happens.

Jenny reminds me a bit of Neko Case, another fave. And Hank Dogs, who give me chills (both the good AND the creepy kind!)

I'm surprised at the negativity towards this. When I first heard it I assumed RP folks would be really into it. Oh well, different strokes.

I watched the video on her website. LOVE IT! The rapidly-fading smiles is the best part; they KNOW they're creepy! The original Hee-Haw is actually really funny to watch now; they KNEW it was totally cheesy, and ran with it. It's like 'Dumb and Dumber' for C&W fans. Say what you will about 'that' kind of music; Roy could freakin' PLAY. And Buck (R.I.P.) created a new kind of country sound.
Yeah, it ain't everyone's cup o' java, but that's why we listen to RP; to hear stuff outside the over-produced, over-censored, market-researched, Arbitron-chasing, all-commercial-all-the-time Broadcast Radio. Clear Channel is in league with the devil; their headquarters are literally a stone's throw from where I'm sitting. So a tactical strike is out of the question...

One assumes it was intentionally made creepy.
