Please please, less Neil young.

Jimmy Buffett has a pretty good version of this song

sounds like luna

The name sucks, the song sucks, the band sucks.
minus1

I was sitting in some random relatively dive-y bar in the flats in Cleveland, and a band of old, paunchy, square looking dudes limped up to the stage and strapped on instruments. Me and my buddies were thinking "Oh, no here comes some bad BTO cover band". Then they broke into THIS song--and they were INCREDIBLE!! Apparently Cleveland really does rock.

'What Light' by Wilco - with no insult intended, he sounds amazingly like John Lennon.

Doesn't the title alone earn an 8?

I like it but, egad! that title!

Fantastic! A solid 2.

If this guy ever learned how to play, he'd get at least a 3 in my book. Marginal stuff, this.

Sorry, can't get into it-
Every Ben Harper tune has a thread of annoyance to my ears.

(click here)

With so many GREAT Cure songs, why are we listening to this mediocre one?

oh and also, stop crapping on his vocals. He did it one time in his bedroom, no voice overs to make it sound better. He said the song cannot have much more integrity than that, and I think it's true.

College all over again......

must ... resist ... air guitar ... urges ...

bahh, eff it, it's friday

ROCK!

8 9

Never heard before... And it's another great piece of music - here in RP! Unfortunately, I have to go to a meeting now (4pm in Cork)...

Wow! This sounds like the vocalist from Cracker! "What the world needs now is another folk singer like I need a hole in my head!"

This song always makes me want to have hot sexxx.

SIMPLE:
Panini = that bread
Pua = the honey-lovin' bear
Kea = cool Norse furnishings

sure.

Somebody bump the record player--the needle's stuck!!

Not as goog as his dad but same message...

Hmmm,

I'm still the only one that thinks that this sucks.

Impressive.

Great song, but is really a nighttime song.

Eleven ?

I finally received this as a gift cd - twice actually, on one birthday!

Email me to loosen my load. Very fair price.

worst song i have ever heard on RP.

Absolutely everything Bill's played off this disc has been outstanding. Makes me think I need to pay more attention to stuff coming off the Putumayo label.

great late night driving album!

Probably my favorite of the various Patty Griffin songs RP has played. This one just connects.

OMG. I was totally loving this until the unneceassry wanky self-indulgent guitar. Now I think I hate it and I can't wait for it to end. Which is sad, because it had a good sultry groove going.

Ok I raised mine from a 1 to a 3. Don't like this, never did, but you can't argue that it's not well done.

Sounds like Beth Orton after a month on testosterone treatment.

Should Bill stop playing it, just because you gave it a 1... ? There might be others who like it, don't you think?

Does no one else hear a hint of Emmy Lou Harris in her voice?

I love the sun too, . Likeable tune indeed!

The Putumayo label has a lot of good stuff.

wut's the point of a song if you spend the first minute banging on your speakers, suspecting a faulty wire?

geez

somebody give this guy some decongestant!

True, it was going just fine until the burglar alarm went off.

Reminds me of Oliver Mtukudzi. Good in my book.

How does she sing with her mouth full of marbles and peanut butter???

How bout we play no hippie crap here. Phish and widespread panic is nothing more then crap made for a bunch of drugged up dirtballs. A real man knows the only drugs you do is steroids, and crap like this SUCKS!

Kinda sounds like Kristy MacColl, dosen't she?

(That's a good thing.)

I dunno...just not feeling it today...I have a headache and those high, whiney notes are just murder on the nervous system...not to mention my head.

JJesque

I almost hate hearing this one at work. I just want to start singing and chair dancing, which really wouldn't go over well...

Once again, I think RP plays way too much of this country hick style of music.... :puke: despite the wonderful reviews of the singer.

Thought this was Lucinda Williams.

I quote "Don't I know you from a cinematographer's party?" to pick up chicks. It seldom works.

What a nice, simple and delightful band. I don't listen to them often, but enjoy them when I dust off their stuff.

I saw these guys in a very small club, with a very private group of people this past Halloween, 2006, in Dallas, Texas. It was a private birthday party for a friend. The Smithereens opened up for The Cult. There were probably around 150-200 people there. Both bands kicked ass although I must say that The Cult stole the show. I was in college when both of these bands came out. Early to mid 80's. It brought back all those memories of partying to the sound of these guys till the sun came up! The birthday boy has a little (lot) of cash so he has done this every year for the last five years. I can't wait till Halloween next year.

that track was musical marijuana

This is like a checklist for things to include in a country song:

Trailer park. Check.
double wide. Check.
pabst blue ribbon. Check.
missin' letters. Check.

More like Shawn Mullet.

Thank you, I'll be here until the end of the song.

This was one of my favorites as a teenager. I own it on vinyl, but do not currently own a turntable.

Made my night, hearing it again.

Now where's that raspberry beret?

For me its not about eclectic or the definition of... I listen to RP so I can hear stuff I dont hear on that other radio, this I can hear easily 10X/Day. I dont think its necessary for RP to play songs like this
Just my humble viewpoint

Highly overlooked Van album. One of his best of the past 30 years, in my opinion.

Does a mullet become a skullet when you're balding?

I think the beach house is the next crater over from the circus....

Circus on the Moon....3 million miles away? Consult an encyclopedia.

What is this song about?

I grew up with Clapton's version, and like it better . . . but this ain't too shabby.

Oh, Kermie....

sounds a bit like Neutral Milk Hotel

Pete Yorn went to Syracuse University, the town in which I live. In fact, I live about a mile from the school in the University neighborhood with students floating by the house day and night. Its cool to think that Pete Yorn probably walked by my house in the evenings, shopped in the same stores as I and generally soaked up the same essence of Syracuse as I.

Nice singer, nice town.

just another new crappy band. Play some Fall Out Boy or My Chemical Romance!

geez Ive been telling my wife about how cool RP is. So on first time listening to RP, this stupid song comes on......she walks right out the room and mentions that i have way to much time on my hands.......thanks alot bill!

..but they're so angelic.

I must've heard this song a million times in the last 30 years without ever stopping to learn the lyrics. Of course I knew most of the more audible ones, but mostly when I hear it I tap along and fake'em (I'm stoopid that way) until today.

Definitely a ten, wish I'd something more to say.

"We built this city. We built this city on Rock and...":puke:

Wow, miles beyond Save Tonight. Goes to show how off pop radio can be.

You gotta love the 1-6-4-5 progression

I have a slightly dumbfounded look on my face right now. I turned to my computer and asked it, "Is this Radio Paradise?"

BTW, it's OK by me to throw something like this in once in a while. Sparingly.

That's not true. George Winston gets some amazing sounds out of his piano. I've seen him in concert with the hood of his piano up, plucking the strings by hand! Sounds great.

great music
ridiculous vocals

Nick Drake-like

If you'll notice, there's no Styx/REO Speedwagon/Journey played here.

My user profile indicates that I don't rate enough songs with a 4. I'll start to remedy that right now.

"Somewhere....be-yond the Sea...."

This reminds me of the Nick Drake tune "Northern Sky". It'd be interesting to hear them back-to-back...I know; I'm not the d.j.~

I hope it's OK that I gave it a 3--I already have more than one child.

Uh, wow, that was totally uncool. Second time this week I've come across a bit of racism in Radio Paradise's song forums. :(

Pretty neat song until the woman starts singing.

Her voice sounds like someone's trying to clean a cat's fanny with a wire brush.

This song is OK, but I think I have to buy the album just for the cover art.

E is he. Eels became they.

And this is among their best.

Weeeeeeee!

Great band, great song!

simple song with good structure, it is worthy of a high rating.

74-75 was the school year that I was in kindergarten. I don't remember much, except for wearing some rather ugly clothes.

Wow! This one just came out of nowhere!

It's one of those songs that pops up every now and again, you just have to stop whatever your in the middle of and find out what is this??

I rated this 8 last time but hoped I'd never have to hear it again. Now I can feel the tears starting. Thanks a lot.

I guess I'm not cool enough. (or whatever the kids call it these days)
I try to at least respect Beck from a creative standpoint, but I hear way more machine than instrument in most of his stuff.

It seems like I should like this group more than I do.

God, he just does the same stuff over and over. Sea Change was the only album he's done that stuck out at me because it was a divergent from his usual repetition. A 6 is being generous here.

Does anyone else hear bits of This Land Is Your Land?

this is oddly nice. is this the actress minnie driver?

I'm a fan - but not one of his best.

Great opening!!! Gave me goosebumps!

Actually, Ben has been around since 1994!

I thought I left the dentist's office two hours ago. I can't believe this is rated so highly.

A featureless, undifferentiated expanse of guitar and alterna-whining.

Bleh.

This brings back tons of memories of a summer I spent at a YMCA kids camp in Greensboro, NC - sometime prior to 1983. I remember the camp counselor who drove us on field trips playing this song really loud on the van radio. I think it was that counselor that made me notice the difference between the curvy figure of a young woman and the undeveloped kid figures of my peers. Yep, her name was Lynn and she drove a Carolina blue Mustang convertible. That was a HOTT summer.

wonder if Radiohead was influenced by KC....same dreamy and complex style.

Still trying to figure out the hype...I keep hearing how they're the new "Pink Floyd". I get the atmospheric vibe they have..but I just can't groove on any of it yet...This tune is pretty meandering...Maybe I need weed?

The guitar work saves this song.

New Paradiser - like what i hear very much - Will be supporting soon and merchandising. I know you have to cover a wide range of tastes , but that last MK & EH effort was a bit too MOR. WINKS - BRMC - DOVEMAN - FLOYD,ZEP PURPLE OBVIOUSLY - MORCHEEBA - ZUTONS -GARY CLAIL (EMOTIONAL HOOLIGAN ALBUM one of the few albums that hits off being political and a dan fine album- very rare) & LIVING COLOUR LOVE REARS IT'S UGLY HEAD , possibly the best track ever made!!!! but then again i could list another 1000 more!!

Not enough room for all music likes - but sets stall out.

it's almost like Sympathy for the Devil and Fortunate Son got trapped together in a plummeting elevator...

This reminds me of Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Unfortunately I'm allergic.

He's gone downhill since Sea Change...

Is she ever not in pain? She sounds like she is trying to hold back a very urgent dump.

Ugh that voice freaked me out!!!

Really nice song.
. . . and a seemless transition from orbital.

Odd choice to be a part of this station's music library. Makes me feel like I'm listening to a lite rock station. Yuk.

Are you sure its not a straw in a McDonald's soft drink cup lid?

Maybe I'm just hungry, but I keep hearing "I kissed your honeyed ham"

Guster's one of my favorite bands .. but I consider this one of their worst songs!

The hair. The makeup. The moustache. The hat. Welcome to your sophomore year in Drama Club, circa 1990.

Depends whether you're into schizo-lyrics or not. Personally I'm rating 2 but it might yet go down to a 1

Hmmm...

Am I the only one, who can hear some Sweet home Alabama in this?

- Knorr

Skiddly doo be dum de doo ...

the only reason i even remotely like this song is that it conjures up images of dan rather getting his ass whipped

Very cool - she sounds like Bernadette Peters, doesn't she? I like it!

Potty mouth.

I'm having a kneejerk reaction to that phrase "awful ladyrock." You're a jerk, and I wish to knee you.

I love this particular tune. Great make-out music.

P.S. You gave Hem's "Half Acre" a 10. I'm confounded, I confess.

I want to know who gave this a 3! What the hell.

This song was decent the first time I heard it, but it grows on you. An 8.

..and, yeah, definitely hear more Concrete Blonde than usual in this one of hers.

I know the 'Beer Run song' ...I thought of that too when I heard the song playing.

Damn you Radio PARADISE! Two songs back-to-back about boats and sailing while snow piles up outside my freakin office window. I guess if it keeps snowing/raining I can sail away home to a frozen drink from a can.

Ahh, great tune. Steve Gadd is the greatest drummer of all time. If you listen closely, you can hear him drop a stick.

Wow! you should write a song!

Is this the next NEXT New Dylan???

One of the best songs of all time. Period.

Home is where I want to be
Pick me up and turn me round.
I feel numb - born with a weak heart
I guess I must be having fun.
The less we say about it the better
Make it up as we go along.
Feet on the ground
Head in the sky
It's ok I know nothing's wrong . . nothing

Hi yo I got plenty of time.
Hi yo you got light in your eyes.
And you're standing here beside me
I note the passing of time.
Never for money
Always for love
Cover up and say goodnight . . . say goodnight

Home - is where I want to be
But I guess I'm already there.
I come home - she lifted up her wings
Guess that this must be the place.
I can't tell one from another
Did I find you, or you find me?
There was a time Before we were born
If someone asks, this where I'll be . . . where I'll be

Hi yo We drift in and out
Hi yo sing into my mouth
Out of all those kinds of people
You got a face with a view.
I'm just an animal looking for a home
Share the same space for a minute or two.
Love me till my heart stops
Love me till I'm dead.
Eyes that light up, eyes look through you
Cover up the blank spots
Hit me on the head Ah ooh

You can try a P2P program like Limewire or try one of the pay sites like Napster or Rhapsody.

This brings back memories.

That's what I like about RP, it makes being reminded that you are getting old feel good!

I used to work for a contract furniture company. The woman in the cube next to me cut out a paper sun, put it in the light over our desk, and would play Bob Marley tunes every Friday - "Island Fridays" she called it - for a temporary escape from the day-to-day routine. It was especially uplifting in the winter.

Her husband ended up being transferred to Germany, and when she left, "Island Fridays" went with her. Every time I hear this song, I think back to those times and smile.

I love Kottke. Except when he sings.

A Buffalo Springfield reference!

Really? Bar none? The worst ever? Are you sure? Worse than the worst disco? Or the worst Paul Anka, Russell Crowe, Hanson????

Is this the song Katherine McPhee sang on 5/2???

Ah, adolescent innocence! Before the plunge into reality.

This could have been a decent tune if she had not fairy'd it all up to munchkin level. I don't know why people think this woman is so good. She makes dreadful music, and this well, welcome to the wizard of ODD's! :puke:

MTV plays music??

I thought it was BHT too before I looked at the playlist. That is not a bad thing, though!!

more constructive, less bitter. thanks.

7:44 pm - Dire Straits - Once Upon A Time In The West
7:41 pm - Yann Tiersen - La Boulange

I like both of the above tracks, but that segue was so rough that the airbag in my office chair deployed.

So sad we lost him when he was still so creative. One note to make, SMOKING SUCKS!

'local bank manager does karaoke' - no more please..........

Liked the original. LOVE this version. :D

Hey -- I know who he sounds like.... A POSER! gak.

This song reminds me of Steve Miller Band. The lyrics are cute.

How did this fluff ever sneak in here?

Definitely reminds me of Mark Knopfler, too. Nice song, if not quite as good as Mark...

I think this song gets better the closer it is played to 5 a.m.

What'd they do, reincarnate themselves as a bubble gum band doing a version of "Spirit in the Sky"? Ho hum.

Maybe the National Guard can blast this and other Ani DiFranco songs over loudspeakers to get the remaining residents of New Orleans to leave town. That would do it for me.

Ugh. I've already commented on this song, but may I again? The clapping to the beat, the singing along ... it just ruins a good song. As with most concert experiences, you hadda be there.

Hear the rest then make up your mind.

Why are you surprised? I know, I know, I lived in upstate New York for 13 years, so I know how strong some stereotypes are. Poland, who knew?

And to think this is one of the weakest tracks on the album (and still worth an 8). Trying to think of a better album to come out of the 80s. Joshua Tree nips at its heels. That's about it. Cure fans would probably dispute.

You know reading this I am convinced there is something really wrong with you-this is a beautiful tune, and RP mixes it up pretty well in the eclectic ingelligent realm. No your not going to hear thrash alternative, but hey, step out of your box. There is something for everyone here, everyone with an awareness, a genuine interest in music, and for those who are true music connisurs! Maybe you need to wake up from your dark brainwashed minded mentality and realize that there is a whole world of fabulous music out there that your missing far beyond this simple song!!

Check out the sountrack to "About A Boy". Very cool. So's the flick.

Repetition, a la Merchant.

Clear the area !!

Yeccch, flaming midwestern honky music. Perhaps excellent in its genre, but I don't like the genre. Ick.

Great song! Makes me wish it were hot out, and that I were lounging with a cold cerveza and some hot salsa!

Poor Leonard....

Apprently his last girlfriend stole a couple million over the last few years..


only has $150,000 left.

Everyone buy and album to help him out, 'k?

I freaking love the cd cover!

Apparently she's a Rasta now. Says Rastafari is her new religion.

It was in the paper, I'm not lying.

I'd like to make a killing and kill this song, this girl....

I like this song in a kitschy way, unfortunately it is inextricably linked in my mind with the first Gulf War under the Bush the Elder. So I have to rate this song a 1 in protest of the current Iraq War, which was begun under false pretences, among other problems.

EDIT (sorta)

Anybody get
Al Stewart outta this?

Well...at least it's not Freefallin'

In this post-Bush world, why hasn't country music already died?

Can't stand vocal breathiness and lisping.

The only thing that woke me from my somnambulism was the last lick, when I went " is that the Doors?", followed by the bitchin' segue into Mr. Morrison and company...

"SEA CHANGE" IS ONE OF MY TOP 5 FAV ALBUMS...great stuff, love beck

When I first started listening to RP, I thought Bill was playing a practical joke when he played songs like this. Now, I'm so accustomed to hearing songs not in english and representative of views outside my own. I think it's had the effect of adjusting my bar for what is good music which is a positive change.

Just thought I'd share that.

You realize it's only a matter of time before the "Mist-er MO-JO ris-in!" part gets used as the soundtrack for a really tasteless Cialis commercial.

lobster claw

I always wondered what these guys were like...never really listened to them. Pretty good!

I'm not a fan of this type of music, but I swear, it sounds like he is either in pain or drunk.... or both.

What an awful voice. . .

I have this strange urge to go shopping...

Mullet music on RP! How cool is that?

C'mon, lighten up. it'll be over in a few minutes.

Yet Another Mark Knopfler 1

What is that giant sucking sound.....oh it's Hooverphonic! Do they come with their own replacement bags?

Okay. It's okay. Kind of winebar background music okay. After a couple of glasses of a good cabernet, a pair of sunglasses, an outside table, then I would be set to appreciate this.

Brings back memories of me sitting at my friend's place, getting stoned and listening to his mother's scratched, 45rpm Jimmy Cliff records.

thanks Bill...for listening to my bitching about so much willie nelson airtime with this song...it's great to hear the original

This is infinitely better than that gawdawful Willie Nelson version Bill plays.

I don't get it...
Do I want to?

baby arm

It has grown on me, so I've upped my rating to a 6. The original by Jimmy Cliff is still a 10 of course.

The godawful reggae version just kills this song for me especially while I was trying to get over that Willie Nelson reggae crap!!

Is it me or does Nickel Creek sound like Guster with a female singer? Great track, though.

Sounds like a bar scene in a 70s TV movie

Sorry, it doesn't move me. In any direction. This is an example of a 5. You don't even notice the song is over. Doesn't bother me and doesn't grab my attention. More like void.
Maybe it needs some alohomora or flipendo

sounds like something you'd hear at an AA convention.

springsteen = good stuff

From a lyrical standpoint, I would be hardpressed to come up with a more intelligent songwriting band than this one.
I am so sick of the standard love BS I hear. Thee guys tell a sophisticated story. I ahve all of their albums, and they are a gem amongst the crap out there.

I hear an lot of Coldplay, but for some reason I never get sick of them..... 8)

never heard The Sam Roberts band before today. I liked the song a lot, checked their website and bought their album.

RP comes through again with the good stuff.

sounds to me like you need to do some "random" drug screening.

I thought it was a man singing falsetto. You sure?

This post is a sad commentary of our times. To have this song (which I gave a generous 5) be someone's favorite song of 2002 tells us how little good new music is out there. How would this song rate if it came out in 1993? 1969? It wouldn't even be in the top 100. No offense to IndiEric intended, but his post bums me out....

A twisted soupcon of Cat Stevens' 'Father and Son'

Did she say think of everytime you've slept in?

i wish I had some drugs

Apparently, you don't get it. I come from a land of liberals. In this area, liberals run the show. They ARE the authority. I question them. I question you.

I wouldn't mind if we all shut up about politics. I would go for that. I would much rather just comment on music here. However, if you maintain your constitutional duty to question, I will speak up as well to question to motives of your questioning. I know that I am the only one that dares to counter the liberal revolutionaries that listen to RP (the overwhelming majority listeners in my opinion), but there are more of us out there that know that you don't have all the answers. Or all of the questions.

I agree - Chutes Too Narrow is a beautiful album but you really have to pay attention when listening in order to notice how beautiful the songs are.

as for this song, it's OK. but I really despise onions.

I dig this tune. I'll have to check her out...where do I start?

Good driving tune :?:

Needs more cowbell.

This is a song about a siren that lured (Eric the Red and other) vikings to their deaths. Some say it was suicide.

Yoko is that you?

I used to live and work in Birmingham, UB40's home town (I actually worked in their Abattoir recording studio a few times) and that album (Rat in the Kitchen) always reminds me of a funny story... about the time it came out, some members of the band went into partnership to buy a restaurant in the city, called "The Latin Quarter". When it was opening, the local TV station did an item on it on the evening news. Somebody in production must have said "just stick their latest single on the soundtrack in the background" without realizing what their current single was. So there was this lovely piece on the evening news about this great new restaurant, with "there's a rat in me kitchen, what am I gonna do?" playing in the background. I believe the restaurant closed some time ago... I'm not suggesting it was related to health and safety issues, but I know I could never bring myself to eat there after that!

Sounds like Simon and Garfunkel

WTF is "baby arm?"

Is this a coded comment on the music or some sort of Texas graffiti?

Camel Toe!!!!

lobster claw

Some songs take you back to the happier days.

lobster claw

"Treena made a tomato taco...?"

You know reading this I am convinced there is something really wrong with you-this is a beautiful tune, and RP mixes it up pretty well in the eclectic ingelligent realm. No your not going to hear thrash alternative, but hey, step out of your box.

I love the guitar sound in this, the climax is most satisfying

I do not get the Lucinda Williams love. At all.

I thought it was "gonna bomb de bus" Probably some darn Al Qiada plot. George! Get em!

my goodness, how's anyone supposed to get any work done with all the dancing going on round here!

great new music I've never heard yet again.

You people are listening to the wrong station

Not that I wish death on anybody...

but we lose people like Elliott Smith and Jeff Buckley (not to mention all that came before them)... while creatures that make up Good Charlotte, Yellow Card, Story Of The Year and countless other mall punk bands continue to crank out crap year after year after year. Wonder how many of their fans (who somehow really believe they are really "punks") have any clue who ES is?

I like Greenday and all (sometimes)... but they destroyed the world with this crap they opened the door foor.

This... on the other hand... gets an 8.6 rounded up to a 9.

Time to turn RP off. The single most untalented performer in the playlist. I have never heard this particular song but could smell Lucinda a mile away. Oh well! Must be the fake-o Southern accent and off key pseudo country whine... Nothing worse than someone "putting on" country IMHO. I put down tools and climbed down off a ladder just to turn her off and write this complaint....

I like it. some parts of the melody sound like the song from willy wonka and the chocolate factory...

a world of pure imagination....

Ooh. Don't make me dislike this song. Why would anyone want to think of Texas?

Absogodfrickingly beautiful.

I think they are grossly overrated... there are hundreds of R&B bands better than them, with no agressive promotion or big money backing them....

And this song sucks pretty much, btw.... :D

Lucinda Williams - Are You Down
J.J. Cale - Guitar Man
Dire Straits - Sultans Of Swing

Great sequence Bill - the guitar sound is the link for me.
The guitar on this cut helps make her sound so damn languid and sexy.
This is one of my favorites from Lucinda Williams.

I can't figure out if she was under the weather at this performance, or what, but compared to all the other recordings I've heard, on here her voice sounds thin and scratchy, and her accent and phrasing are weird. It's like she's barely the same singer, and I can't believe that her smooth and confident voice on all her other recordings has been the result of some kind of studio wizardry. Hasn't anybody else noticed this?

Such an under rated band of the nineties. It was so unfortuante when Shannon Hoon died, and it barely got a two inch column in the papers & music rags, MTV just about mentioned it on their 'news'
Yet, Cobain - do I even need to go there? He is STILL appearing on the covers of magazines! I don't care how great Kurts music was (I agree that it was) he killed himself, he did it on purpose! I would love to see where Blind Melon would be right now.

OK, so this is a white person rapping.....

Um, correction:

Thanks a lot, Blondie, for changing the direction of music to what it has become today. We all must suffer. AAARGGHH!

No, but you have to give up your musical individuality and submit to the hive-mind reprogramming.

/resist! It's not worth it!

I agree, it is a must see especially if you plan to visit Cuba.

The wonderful voice belongs to Eliades Ochoa.

Re Ferrer, because of a Bush administration crackdown on Cuban artists, he was denied a visa to attend the 2004 Grammys to accept an award for best traditional tropical Latin album.

Ever so lonely - sounds like she's calling the cat in

Nifty tune, good opera singer. They do NOT go well together. It is the aural equivalent of ketchup and ice cream. Eww.

sounds like they've been listening to guster...

Too bad.

Hated it. Two snaps and a twist.

No soup for you. Come back two years.

What is she called now?

This just creeps me out for some reason. I imagine suburban housewives starting to grow dreads, and sparking up a big spliff on the way to the PTA meeting.

IF I HEAR ANOTHER SAPPY WAIF SONG- I'M GONNA GROW OVARIES!

WTF???

AM I IN LILTH FAIR HELL???

JESUS!!!!!

8O During whose nighties?

I hope that makes it into regular rotation --- a strong candidate for best love song ever!

Please explain if you don't mind...

You bet! Just caught him two weeks ago tomorrow at the Mountain Winery in Saratoga. Great show! Awesome guitarist! Accordion accompanyment outstanding!

Oh. You're playing the LP at 45RPM again, eh?

Merits a 9 on the song alone....
