One finds himself wondering exactly why this very "small" cut is so very listenable? It may be that it's just a good arrangement against impeccable production values. Regardless, it is very listenable.

Please give it a rest and do not play this for a few months. So sick of hearing it.

Please no more than once a month.....7 times in 30 days is way too often....

Timeless, maybe - but that doesn't justify playing it 7 times in 30 days.... {#Yawn}

Oh yes, instant classic. Lyrically awesome, musically awesome - timeless.

A year on, Pussy Riot claim a victory in Russia

Yekaterina Samutsevich has few regrets about the day a year ago when she marched into a Russian Orthodox church with four other members of the Pussy Riot punk band, pulled on a balaclava and reached for her guitar.

Guards grabbed her before she could join in the band's "punk prayer" against Vladimir Putin, and she went on to spend several months in detention before facing trial last year with two bandmates who are still in jail...

0.233, according to the playcount. But I know just what you mean. :-)

Amazing, what an assortment of sounds, what a spectrum of lyrics this man, this band has given the world...and thanks, RP, for turning us onto them from the beginning!

Excellent tune - one of their best. I love the voice and the guitar - colossal with kind of a remorseful feel.
