There's a line... One line.
There's a line... One line.
There's a line... One line.
There's a line... One line!

I like Wilco, but they're better than this.

I think, all the writers put their energy on the negative comment on madonna, and now.....?:::
This is a nice song, though...!

Ashamed to say I don't have any Wilco in my collection, despite liking pretty well everything Bill plays by them. I'll be correcting that soon.

Really cool tune.  I see they're coming to New Orleans Jazz Festival this spring along with a bunch of other greats.  Should be a fine time.

It might be because it just followed In My Life but Jeff sounds like a cross between Lennon and Joe Strummer on this.

Probably not an accident here on JT's part.  I like it.  This CD is one of my all-time favorites.  Too bad some here feel Wilco is overplayed on RP.

But enough about you - what about the song? Have you ever posted a positive comment, or do you just like a good old trolling whinge?

 

Let's try it again, folks. I'll type S-L-O-W-L-Y.

PLEASE STOP RE-POSTING EXCELSIOR'S COMMENTS. I don't know why this is hard to understand. He's been gone from the comments threads for a few weeks now, either because he got bored or got kicked off, and the only way he lives on is through people's reposts. If it weren't for those, we wouldn't have to see him at all. At this point, the people re-posting are way more annoying than the guy himself.

Please. Stop. Thanks.

i really like the song... but it's just that one off-pitch note that feels like nails on a chalkboard to me.  was the producer taking a bio break when that note happened?  believe me, tweedy, i feel it... but not in a good way.  :(

This time, it is very bad.  This song is horrible, even for Wilco.

The hurling emoticon seems a bit heavy-handed. It's maybe a not great song, but emetic?
