And I need it now - stuff is getting very difficult and complicated (and my damned keyboard is so gummed up that I have to retype every third word!) This song makes me feel happy. Haven't really listened to the words, but the very tone cheers me. Bill - things are pretty hard here - could we get a feel-good set? I'd wax your skis, I'd polish your gerbil , I'd be your best friend... Please? Thanks, whatever happens. I just love this place... [ Reply ]

Get past the superficial similarities and you see two completely different animals. Jay Farrar sounds like Michael Stipe? Yeah, right! I love Son Volt, I loved Uncle Tupelo, and Jay's solo work as well. But Michael Stipe STILL has the vocal range and timbre of an opera singer, whereas Jay usually sounds about a 1/4 note off pitch. dalangham has it cold: Convergence forced sharks and dolphins to evolve in a similar fashion to deal with external factors acting upon them to adapt or die. Sort of sounds like the music biz, eh? [ Reply ]

Coppertop Jan 30, 2012 - 13:56	I love his voice to, just one song at a time though. I bought an album, based on a hearing one song, and played it through. Bad move. Afetr the third song his voice was just irritating. Great lyrics. [ Reply ]
Moak Jan 30, 2012 - 13:55	When you come to the fork in the road, you gotta decide. I chose Son Volt. [ Reply ]
