Y'all can play this one a few more times than the frequency of comments might imply interest. Dig it!

Wouldn't it be nice to hear an Ozzie band who sing in an Ozzie accent?

Was that a Kirsty MacColl reference? I love that song! {#Sunny}

As much as I like B.C. and like the W's it
 really it is not that hard to to do (stealing the show that is)  ;-)

About the cover: it's from the Sun Dirt Water CD single, not the album. The single is available for purchase here: http://www.waterfrontrecords.com/product/71193

Echoing this... I left for five minutes to do some recon on the house, and I got back and heard the last part of this song. Wow. I like it. I'l need to hear it again to know how to rate it, but based on my very limited hearing of it, I'd give it 8.

Geez.

 
Myself I'm starting with a more conservative 6, but I won't be surprised if I increase it on further listenings.

Ha! I thought it was just me - it does seem like everyone writes that for all my favorite bands. And I don't really like Joan Osborne. What is with that comparison all over RP?!?

Yes.  Me too...speaking of strong, soulful, & sexy female vocalists.  Some similar qualities as J.O. to be sure.

Personally, I LIKE both of the pairs of shoes on this album cover. By the way, Amazon shows a different album cover.  (Yes, I know they're CD covers.  Your point?)

The dark-haired waif was pregnant when I saw the group in San Francisco a couple years back. Good to see they've got meat on their bones.

Soooo dull. Total snoozefest and not in a good way. Sounds like every university jazz band you've ever heard.

I agree with the 'not worth all the airplay' call.

tired of this really annoying song, RP. It just doesn't merit the amount of airplay it gets.

Just tuned in and got to hear one on my favorite bands. Thanks RP for playing the Waifs, I believe they have a great sound and I’m happily awaiting the arrival of their new CD "two months back ordered here in the USA".

Have a great day

I love strong female voices like this. I do wish she'd do some more modern-style stuff. But hey, i love this voice either way!
