Here it is, October - and I'm sitting here with my furry cat in my arms, and we're discussing a tropical island. How cool would THAT be? Cats, maybe a couple of dogs, on an island where there are no predators, no stray cats, no nosy neighbors... lots of trees to climb (and if a couple of them were pine - yeah, I know - humor me here, okay?) A small boat with an outboard motor to get to and from the mainland (wherever the mainland might be) for provisions...
This song just sorta made me rethink my dream. I used to want a little patch of land at the base of the Ruby Mountains, but that would involve an airtight cabin wth a wood stove, a stockpile of wood, and a wraparound porch so I could watch the snow fly. My different dream is a cabin on a beach in a place that never sees hurricanes, or a small island with a few trees, a beach, a hibachi, and a pontoon plane once a month to take my order for cat food (no litter, because, hello, BEACH...)
Geez, I don't know what I want. I want everything. Anywhere I end up, though, I want to be able to access RadioParadise. I know that sounds like a shameless plug, and maybe it is - but RP has pulled me through some bad things, just like my physical friends, and if I could have an isolated world with RP and limited access to complicated friends, I'd love it.
Anyone who wants to join me on this magical island - I've got brochures.
These guys wouldn't know a hook if it stuck in the ass.
Interesting criticism coming from someone who took their user name from a 7½-minute-long song, which arguably epitomizes those qualities, well except for "redundant"; I think you may have meant "repetitive". To each his own.
I just bumped it to 10 also - can't argue with how it makes me feel...

It's about a year since my last post on this song, and the only thing different is that it's hot outside, the sky is so blue it puts Crater Lake to shame, and my garden is growing. I still want my island, but this song and a tan will work for now. Bumping it to 10 because it's just too perfect for a 9...

Wow Grohl is like the new Phil Collins. Ex-drummer of a ground-breaking band who goes on to make neurotically repetitive pop-rock. Maybe they'll bring back Miami Vice and give him a cameo.
After listening to the new album, I'm going to disagree. Nothing about 'neurotic repetitive pop-rock' on Wasting Light.

Was a bit surprised to see this was Foo Fighters....like it a lot, but I am not sure how many times I could listen to it...it does get a bit redundant....
I'm so with you on this. I've said before that I don't think Dave is that much of a song writer, but this song is really good.

Okay, this must just be the groove I'm meant to have today. Judie Tzuke's "Break Your Skin" (and I'm STILL trying to lock into lyrics for it - Calypso_1? HELP!), Cowboy Junkies, and now Foo Fighters. I should be writing now. No, not commenting on this lovely music, but actual writing. I have five semi-manuscripts pending, and I haven't felt like writing anything of substance for a long while now. This music set is gooooood...
this song shows the full scope of this great band and Davies many talents. I am sure that over time this CD will become a classic in the ranking of 12 Dreams of Dr Sardonicus (Spirit) or Eat a Peach (Almond brothers)!
