Radio Paradise (mobile)

I put into Nashville, Tennessee
But you wouldn't even come around to see me
And since you're headin' up to Carolina
You know I gonna be right there behind you
'Cause I always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
Now I love to feel that warm southern rain
Just to hear it fall is the sweetest sounding thing
And to see it fall on your simple country dress
It's like heaven to me I must confess
'Cause I always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
Now I've been hangin' around you for days
But when I lean in you just turn your head away
I know you didn't mean that
She said I love the way you think but I hate the way you act
'Cause I always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you

It's just not enjoyable (to me), regardless of its intent, or lack of seriousness, or any of the other explanations that folks come up with for why a listener really should like a particular piece.

But I also agree with Excelsior that another option should pertain to the artist's works as a hole (sic). [ Reply ]

vivakitty Jan 21, 2009 - 13:59	This song is going along, nice and poppy, cute lyrics, and then WHAMMO lame-o beatboxing. Blurgh. [ Reply ]

His first 2 were great, his 3rd was ok....this album was a dog and pretty much everything since has been barely worth a yawn. I felt like on this album he was trying his hand at some different styles of music that just didn't suit him, and he never regained his groove or inspiration after that. I can't even imagine him recording something cool like 'Ground on Down' or adventurous like 'God Fearing Man' or as heartfelt as 'Pleasure and Pain' these days.... [ Reply ]
ValosAtreide Dec 20, 2008 - 23:28	I was going to give this song a 6... that is, till I heard the bass solo.. which made it an instant 8! [ Reply ]

GChevy410 Nov 19, 2008 - 09:09	I agree with all the negative folks out there; however, in spite of Ben Harper being 'soulless' he makes some catchy tunes every once in a while. I have to give this one to him. It gets an 8 to 9. [ Reply ]
oldman Nov 19, 2008 - 09:08	Geez, lighten up guys, it's a fun/happy, light song. Does every song have to be DEEP. [ Reply ]
wenatchee Nov 03, 2008 - 10:13	. . . It would be interesting to NOT see comments until after one has posted. This is an OK tune, would like to see a bit more depth and richness in the lyrics. The rif does not change much . . . [ Reply ]

Graham Parker had a great song about fatherhood on Deep Cuts from Nowhere called Tough On Clothes, gist of the words being his child was hard to keep up with, have to go to the store as she or he grows in spurts, just bought some clothes yesterday but now they're worn or outworn, but it isn't it what it's all about for working blokes and how I love my kids. Touching, funny and true plus excellent musically. Struck by Lightning also has many great songs about family and children. wow. haven't thought about that song in ages. though i like harper's song here, that one is far better. gotta see if i can dig it out. thanks!
