Bill, in addition to being able to nominate new tracks can we recommend ones that we would like to remove from the play list? This track is played far too much and whilst there is nothing wrong with it I'd rather hear something new. Just a thought!!
Really now, a bit of perspective is in order. Please stop and consider just how freakin' diverse the playlist is here. Absolutely nothing is played too frequently on RP. Any such arguments are simply the height of ridiculousness.

Yes, for some reason this is one of those tracks that seems to be played more frequently than the statistics indicate. However, the PSD button is always close by.

Is it just me but does this song get the equivalent airplay (on RP at least) that Hey Jude did when it was peaking? I mean this is a decent song but it's not Hendrix or Beatles or even Van Morrison. What gives?
Funny how people complain about the free things in life like listening to RP (donations aside). You might as well complain about the music coming out of a passing car.
I know what you mean, but your example may need reconsideration. You must not live in a place where people go about with 400-watt stereo systems and ultra-bass sub-woofers, rumbling out of their vehicles in excess of 100 dB. True though, complaining does little good in that situation. Good song, by the way.
good lord, what a bitchfest in here. chill, people.

That's pretty narrow criteria; there has been music made in the years subsequent to 1968, you know.
What exactly do you imply here? That no European living today is entitled to criticize atrocities and blatant violation of human rights, because of what happened before they lived? If so, you better brush up on your debating skills, bud. Because you ain't going go win any that way.
I imply that before you (the royal you) go spewing your anti-American propaganda all over this board, maybe first consider burying your head in the sand for the next 1000 years to make up for the 2000 years Europe spent scourging the planet until, say, about 1960.
I am fully aware of atrocities in Iraq and Vietnam, etc... not my point. Our soldiers are wonderful, brave etc.. I am glad we don't adopt the do-nothing ethos of Europe.
Does that help my debating skills any? If not, I don't give a flying f.
Not to take anything away from our (the US) active and past military personnel, I think this country would be a lot better served if we DID adopt a little bit more of Europe's "do-nothing ethos." Is there really any need for the US to be the world's police force? And even if there is, I'd hardly call the majority of our military actions over the last 60 years police work. There is a very strong record of supporting revolutionary groups who are working to overthrow existing democratically elected governments (or at least stable and somewhat equitable) and making the new government pawns in America's ambitions. That is, until our little pawns get a mind of their own and do something like, I don't know, invade Kuwait? Or maybe supplying the Afghanistan resistance movement against the Russians in the 80's only to have those same weapons fired at American soldiers a few decades later.
I, for one, think we should get our fingers out of places they don't belong. Would you want China, Japan, or Russia trying to dictate decisions and policy in our country? No? Then why should we have the right to do the same in any other country?

Wow, all your references are 40 years old. Do you ever listen to new music. I agree, though, Bill plays this too much.

It's funny, as a European, that you make use of the term eradicate. I think your continent has already cornered the market on that, sister. Have you ever so much as opened a history book?
Wait a second - you're confronting me because I use the term "eradicate" when genocide has been the order of the day since Mussolini and even before? As a European (which I'm assuming you are, unless your use of commas indicates that you think I am European, in which case, you're mistaken) have you forgotten Hitler's regime to eradicate the Jews, the Gypsies, and anyone who wasn't of Aryan descent? I think you should open and read a couple of history books yourself. And DON'T call me "sister." I don't know you. And I HAVE opened, read, and questioned history books, not that I should have to justify myself to you.
@rdo lets talk about the Indian wars, or maybe the slaves brought in to work the fields.....or Vietnam or Iraq.... or maybe glass houses echo too much? Maybe it's best if we just stick to the music, huh?
