| Cynaera (South of Neanderthal) | Posted: May 23, 2010 - 15:29 Saw John Hiatt at the L.B. Day Amphitheater in Salem, Oregon in the 80's. He was on a triple-bill with Robert Cray and Stevie Ray Vaughn. And as much as I adore SRV, Hiatt was just so on top of his game that evening, and the acoustics were so perfect, that he blew everyone away. I went out the next day and bought "Slow Turning" and "Bring the Family," and I'm still listening to them to this day. How can you hate a guy who writes lyrics like this? Well, the day was long - now supper's on The thrill is gone, but something's taking place. Yeah, the food is cold and your wife feels old But all hands fold as the two-year old says grace. She says, "Help the starving children to get well. But let my brother's hamster burn in hell." You love your wife and kids - just like your dad did... |

Always good to hear him on any form of radio! Saw him in Reno. Great show, and he's a kind, down to earth guy to boot! Humble, not stuck up and full of himself like many well liked musicians and some listeners here obviously. |

You may not like it, and that's perfectly cool, but please. Don't get all physicsgenius for god's sake. You can try to reason with the unwashed, but it will do you no good. |

| TanteJensen (one step ahead from my shoe shine, two steps away from the county line) | Posted: Oct 15, 2009 - 01:04 I'm glad so many people like it, as I think it's just plain boring. Not even bad, but not remarkable - weren't it for the repeating of the chorus. |

I am confused as to how anyone could hear the noise that comes out of this guy's mouth and not wince in pain. And this is from a guy who rates Neil Young, Tom Waits, and Bobby Zimmerman as TENS??? I like all four of these/those guys anyway - dulcet tones alone do not an artist make... (Come to think of it, one of my all-time favorite singer/songwriters can't carry a tune in a bucket!) Anybody wanna venture a guess as to who that might be?  |

 The opening drum beats had me worrying that Kenny Loggins' "Footloose" was coming on! |

| Hairfarmer (Asheville, NC) | Posted: Oct 23, 2003 - 20:55 My favorite Hiatt tune  I LOVE this song. I'd also love to hear Seven Little Indians from the same album. |
| jeremyleo (Ottawa) | Posted: Feb 14, 2002 - 10:55 This tune (and album) got me hooked on the powerful and personal songwriting of John Hiatt. He is one of the greats! Please play more! :) |

| kevinc (Richardson, TX) | Posted: Jan 24, 2002 - 15:02 Seems to me that Hiatt may get a bit more than his fair share of airplay on RP. I'd swear I hear him at least once, if not twice/day. That said, I really like him. Go figure. |
