have to agree. i'm hardly their worst critic, but really -- fifteen years after sadeness, i see no evolution...

Generally an acceptable, if not exciting song, it is particularly jarring after the Emmylou Harris. I can't do this song right now... :verysorry:

Holy crap ... I just looked them up.. MCMXC came out in 92!... make that.. TEN years.. :) My, how time flies when you're shootin' the cheese.

That is good, not evil. Culture grows upon culture, not in absence of it. What meaning would it have otherwise?

Now maybe someone will go check out NIN out of curiosity.
