These lyrics are deeper than the music allows it to be. Maybe that's why I like this. Interesting and well done. Not outstanding, but good.
Following the previous two postings...I also miss the profound and often 'spot on' postings of Cynaera very much! See you on the other side some day...Miles from our home.

Man, this song could have rocked with a half-way decent vocalist.

Great band in concert - I was really preparing myself to be disappointed when I heard Margo's "real voice" (no studio conditioning, etc.), but alas, she has a fantastic voice live - clear as a bell. They had a multi - instrumental guy with them that played a killer lead mandolin - I thought maybe they were playing over a recording, because I heard this screaming lead guitar, but none were on stage - then I noticed that it was the guy in back with the mandolin.
I don't recall now if they played this - the song is kind of new to me. They did play a couple from the album that is coming out - pretty good stuff for a first listen.
Margo tells little stories between songs and seems like a very warm person - she even made a point of promising to come meet with the audience while the guys packed up.
I'd go see them again tomorrow if they came back.
I saw them live a few years back and must agree! They are great live. Margo has an amazing live voice, with more range than the haters might expect. I've always loved this band and I find them more genuine than many of today's emo pop darlings. I don't mind that her voice stays in the low range. They are great songwriters and musicians. Most of their music resides in the "slow and moody" area but they have a few more upbeat songs like this. I love the variety. |

Yes, it's good when she gets out of that catatonic material. |

I knew they had one in them that I would find at least passable! Normally not remotely interested in listening when the CJ's come on but this is decent.

The Junkies badly, badly, badly need a singer with a range of more than 1/2 octave.

Thanks bindi, that's a good review! It's nice to know they still sound great. I hope to see them someday. |

Michael Timmins always struck me as a good songwriter who would have been a great songwriter with some help from a really good editor.
