Great song - agree with cool urban NYC vibe.  Love the cover - Polly Jean is cool.

I think you are supposed to relate the "something" to something that was perhaps said to you once so it has many meanings.

Vocal stylings, with spare guitar backing. on this one remind me of Liz Phair on Exile in Guyville for some reason. .

I really, really, really can't get enough of this song. I agree with commenter below regarding this song captuyring the NYC vibe for a certain period of time. I have a "rooftop in Brooklyn, one in the morning" memory that will forever be tied to this, though it took place 20 years before the song was written.

Love this song

So good! This song captured a vibe about New York pre 9/11 that just doesn't exist anymore. I wish I could explain it better, but the city has become far too expensive and the economy far too unforgiving to allow for the excesses of the late 90s.
 
. . . not for those who can afford it. Life goes on as normal for the 1%.

Great artist.
Great song.  I want to know what was said too!

That's the most I have ever heard her sound like Chrissie Hynde.. Must be the medication.

I have access to a rooftop in brooklyn and can see much of what PJ describes in the beginning of this great song.

Bought this album because of Radio Paradise.  It has been on heavy rotation ever since.  Great, great album!

All the talk about Hynde and Etheridge...I think PJ sounds like Olly Knights on this one.

I pulled a few songs off of this and I finally decided to get the whole damn CD.  It is excellent front to back.

Nope, neither ME-ish or CH-ish, but more like Johnette Napolitano.

What the hell does 'meh' mean? Sounds like you're suggesting it's bland. She's hot, the music's not? There's some non-PC commenting for you..... wonder how many women comment on the hotness of a guy's music they don't like.
 
PC? what authority issued the requirement to be PC? And who said that PC is a virtuous attitude anyway?
I"d say it's quite the opposite -especially when it hides the truth.  
And yes there are women here who comment on the attractiveness of male performers.
