I "discovered" Elbow through Radioparadise (thank you, forever) and I think "Build a Rocket Boys" is one of the best albums I have ever heard. Especially the title track. But "Jesus is a Rochdale Girl" is an amazing song in its own right. I think it's wonderful. If Elbow ever finds its way to the US, I'll be the first in line to buy a ticket to the show (figuratively speaking, of course.)


I also would never have heard any Elbow if it wasn't for RP...I Love their music. very much a Pink Floyd influence

It most certainly isn't. It's Rochdale, Lancashire UK. Just down the road from where Guy Garvey lives/lived.

On the fence with this latest effort from the Elbow folks. NIce, yes. But almost too "cute" after their initial splash I was privy to here on RP. 'Jesus Is A..." and "Build a Rocket..."? Hmm. Whatever.

i know what you mean.
the seldom seen kid is my favorite (next to from asleep in the back)

but this song in particular grew on me from this album. there are also a couple other noteworthy tunes from this effort. it really took time to grow on me though.

Quit backsliding again with the hotel, ears, dancin', nipples, etc.. remarks. You are a good writer. Below you wrote a nice little bit. Your knowledge of music is quite impressive, among other things. Quit being the opposite of troll - the non-troll, the anti-troll. What is that? The fairy godmother? I don't know. Put your talents to better use. Also, please post a picture of your chicks in that room.
