| sookie | Posted: Jun 21, 2010 - 12:22 I love this whole album including this song...I love driving to it...Probably the only one here that likes it but that's OK..I know what I like and that what matters to me. I found a Janah CD un opened at a yard sale and I can say it was one of my bests finds at a yard sale so far. Since then I have remained open minded to many forms of music. I try not to be too harsh on musicians who play their heart out and the way they feel. I am loosing respect quickly on the people here and the kinds of words used to describe something they consider bad. I will either like ot or not like it depending how it resonates with me but I will never slash a musicians work...even rap. |

| cycleman (Connecticut) | Posted: Nov 17, 2003 - 14:51 This song is monotonous...it sounds like a crude rip-off of Talking Heads during their middle years....ouch! Maybe I need another listen....but then again maybe I don't |
| PattonFever (tripoli) | Posted: Nov 17, 2003 - 14:47 fun! yay! |
| mksothrpeoplrich (Chicago, IL) | Posted: Nov 17, 2003 - 14:47 I really dig the drums...  |

| RosieRedfield (Vancouver) | Posted: Sep 19, 2003 - 19:09 I am soooo tired of hearing this. |
| 3dJonas (Syracuse, NY) | Posted: Aug 25, 2003 - 01:14 One of my favourite RP songs. |

Very nice!  I completely agree - and look - the bananas dance to the rhythm! |
| Pipes (Murray, UT) | Posted: Aug 15, 2003 - 06:35 Sounds like an Oingo Boingo song. Did Danny Elfman write this? :D |
| PaulG (UK) | Posted: Aug 15, 2003 - 06:35 This really is terrible! |
| Damdew (Marseille, France) | Posted: Aug 08, 2003 - 06:27 the instrumental version should be better. Can't stand the vocals. |

| redeyespy (West Palm Beach, FL) | Posted: Jul 18, 2003 - 20:41 ponderous :( |

Very nice! |
| anonymous (Isle of Man, UK) | Posted: Jun 28, 2003 - 10:17 Once again, Bill....  You mix it up SO well, thanks !!  |
| ludwig7 (Long Beach, CA) | Posted: Jun 04, 2003 - 20:30 This is an okay song to hear once in awhile, but lately it's into way too heavy a rotation here. Give it a rest for awhile, Bill, maybe give us a listen to something by this band besides this and Wake of the Sun. |

| redezra (Hopkinsville, KY) | Posted: May 28, 2003 - 19:28 Why bother?   |

| rinthered (Woodstock, NY) | Posted: May 15, 2003 - 11:47 oh CRAP i can't help but like this - maybe next time it wont get stuck in my head all day |
| downbylaw (indianoplace, in) | Posted: May 08, 2003 - 09:52 let the suckfest continue... |
| princeofpeoria (tulsa, OK) | Posted: May 08, 2003 - 09:50
BLAH.....please make it stop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| AndrewKoransky (Mableton, GA) | Posted: May 05, 2003 - 07:45 Wow... Thanks to RadioParadise for introducing me to this great local band. I love the hard driving rhythms and the Middle Eastern influence. Their CD is full of great music. Can't wait to see them live. |
| cantyastridusern (cottbus) | Posted: Mar 30, 2003 - 10:06 Imagine listening to this one first in the morning ? whooee... Let it come true, dear folks at RP, since it's 8 p.m. where I live.  |

| ghrup1 (Stoney Creek, ON) | Posted: Mar 25, 2003 - 12:01 Sounds like a Ricky Martin B-side. (that's very bad) |
| justlistening (Irvine, CA) | Posted: Mar 25, 2003 - 11:58 Perhaps some shampoo will take care of the oil on the head. As far as the song - fun once in a while. :) |

| mdlong1965 (Wichita, KS) | Posted: Feb 20, 2003 - 11:35 the only time
aint that the truth |
| Carissa (Trafficville (Atlanta), GA) | Posted: Feb 20, 2003 - 11:33 I'm definitely at the saturation point with this one. In fact, I might burst into flame if I hear it again. |
| wonderunit (structure w/roof, CA) | Posted: Feb 20, 2003 - 11:31 The only times I've had oil on my head have been during automotive maintenance efforts gone awry. This song sucks. Harshly. |

| cfusion (East Lansing, MI) | Posted: Feb 14, 2003 - 10:20 I like the variety of sounds in this song...I can see how it could overwhelm some people though. |
| miamizsun (Miami Beach (3285.3 Miles SE of RP), FL) | Posted: Feb 14, 2003 - 10:19 wha? :???: |
| keekster (Medford, MA) | Posted: Feb 05, 2003 - 14:12 Great song! |
| foy (Woodstock, GA) | Posted: Feb 04, 2003 - 05:44 Love this song - just can't stop dancing around the office. Dog's looking at me like I'm nuts. |
| TreborG2 (Strasburg, VA - a place second only to Paradise ;)) | Posted: Jan 05, 2003 - 23:08 hmmmm guess that's the curse.... I was thinking about looking into getting the album.. I really liked the other song that RP plays.. but after hearing this one.. I think I'll wait till I've heard more of them.. and if need be look for a cd single of the other tune...  |

I've seen them a couple times at some live shows around there; their sound live is pretty much what you are hearing on RadioParadise. In fact, you can hit up their website (www.janah.org) and download some live mp3s. |
| RenegadeTrout (Grand Forks, ND) | Posted: Dec 23, 2002 - 14:36 Who are these guys? Where ar ethey from? |
| pikester (Los Angeles, CA) | Posted: Dec 23, 2002 - 14:27 Good to hear my friends getting some airplay on the day of Festivus! I'm always amazed when I hear thier music, it is very powerful stuff. |
| triviagal (Just Outside Washington DC) | Posted: Dec 16, 2002 - 12:40 Funky. I like it. |
| mread (San Diego, CA) | Posted: Dec 06, 2002 - 08:37 This reminds me of the old Adrian Belew song, "Big Electric Cat." Something about the rhythm section has the same taste and feel. |
| mperry (Columbia, MO) | Posted: Nov 24, 2002 - 16:21 This sounds like what, after I first heard them in '93, I expected to later hear from Rusted Root as they progressed. Well they've become boring and bland, but this song certainly is not. Sounds good. |
| rhw (Chicago, IL) | Posted: Nov 07, 2002 - 12:14 Saw these guys live last week. Great show, too bad nobody knew who they were! |
