Haven't heard this song in YEARS!  Brings back memories of seeing them live at Irving Plaza in like... '91.  Disappointing show though.

A massive one hit wonder band.....but still, at least they did one good song. {#Dancingbanana}

Oh, and how cool to look back at comments 10 years old.  I love this station.  Thanks Bill.

What a great reminder to revisit this cd. I don't think I have played it for well over a decade. 9

Urg, this is not so good following Tabla Beat Science, doesn't stand up well in comparison.

Appreciate the Hindi explanation.  Always important to understand what the words mean, IMO.

Very cool. From wikipedia:
The cover art (by comic-book artist Dave Gibbons) consists of various images related to the letter K, including: John F. Kennedy, Lord Kitchener, Karl Marx, Gene Kelly, Katharine Hepburn, Ken Dodd, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Danny Kaye, Kal-El (Superman), Boris Karloff (as Frankenstein), Krishna, King Kong, Martin Luther King, Jr., 2 Knights (a pair of Keys on one of them), a Kettle, Kali, the Kaiser, Nikita Khrushchev, Grace Kelly, the number 11 (symbolizing K) and Rudyard Kipling's book Kim.

Ginger Baker has been in my brain since the last time this played.  Love it.  Did he MAKE or ATE a taco?

I like this song, but perhaps more because of the period in my life at which it came out, than because of any intrinsic qualities it has.

Then you're going to hate me for suggesting Jimi Hendrix is singing "scuse me while I kiss this guy."

Its Hindu and its a chant. Someone who speaks Hindi could translate.

That's not necessarily a good reason to dislike the song.

Tacos with curry powder?  Edgy concept, but it just - might - work.
