Radio Paradise (mobile)

The elevator in the hotel lobby has a lazy door
The man inside is going to a hotel room
He jumped out right after seeing just the very sight of me
He decided he better hike it to the second floor

It's temporary, this place I'm in
I permanently won't do this again
My belongings scattered all across the hotel floor

An hour later I was thinking it over by the snack machine
I thought about you and a candy bar
Now and later now that I've got it stuck between my teeth
I fell asleep to the greatest movie of the year

A man gets lonely for heaven's sake
He's wondering only what did you do today
The world spin around me to old sad song

Well, it's coming down outside like I've never even seen before
I fell into some kind of sorry state
But looking back now I think it's finally time for me to laugh about it
And get my things together and find something to say

Well I feel awful, and I believe
That time gets wasted in this misery
And darlin, I would never want to come back home

There are plenty of other songs in RP rotation that have a very polarizing effect, but this one isn't one of them. I'm always amused when I see songs where the ratings form a very clear inverted bell curve - with most of the scores in the 1-2 range and in the 9-10 range. And I'm doubly amused when it seems that my favorite bands fall into this polarizing category - Dead Can Dance, Cocteau Twins, etc... Band of Horses is a consistent 7 for me. Another in a long list of good bands to which I'd be oblivious were it not for RP. [ Reply ]

Yes, I also find a lot of music here that I did not get to hear in the "dry 90's/oughts" when there didn't seem to be any radio stations without screaming, mindless DJs and equally mindless music. However I was lucky in the 60's, 70's and 80's to listen to excellent FM radio, yet Bill & Rebecca still play stuff from those time periods I've never even heard. What a treasure this station is!

kingart Apr 15, 2012 - 16:07	It grows on you, like the band. Simple but effective. Optimally listenable if not quite worthy of a zillion repeats. [ Reply ]
