Daddy's little racer in here brand new car
Top down for the weather and the sons of stars
Summer's soon, surrender
Eyes of blue, and time enough to shine
So come on, come one
You don't know it but you're coming right along
Baby's getting older under April skies
The road is getting warmer every day she drives
Old enough to know better
Time enough to know her left from right
So come on, come on
You don't know it but you're coming right along
Something's scrathing at the glass
All the angels drive too fast
Pull your dress off on the grass
See it falling
Summer's crawling over
Crawling over you
So come on, come on
You don't know it but you're coming right along

I could listen to all four of these songs again - even in the same order! |

| cayenne (in over my head) | Posted: Nov 09, 2010 - 14:39 Everybody thinks this sounds like a different band. Me, I thought it was the lovechild of Spoon and Dirty Vegas. |
| rtrudeau (Bay Area, California) | Posted: Jun 03, 2010 - 09:47 Never heard of this band. I really like this. |
| naivezebra (Farnborough , England , UK) | Posted: Dec 27, 2009 - 12:45 Sounds like U2 covers band , during the Zoo Station era |
| dedawson (Thousand Oaks, CA (You never know where you're going til you get there)) | Posted: Apr 18, 2009 - 20:51 This IS pretty darn enjoyable. Good background for the daily crossword. |
| mandolin (...drifting...) | Posted: Mar 18, 2009 - 08:09 ...this is refreshing... |
| coolpeople_rule | Posted: Jul 08, 2008 - 11:30 The vocals sounded a little like Gomez to me. |

| xkolibuul (Chuckanut sandstone) | Posted: Jun 06, 2008 - 23:28 Sounds like these guys have been listening to a lot of Robbie Robertson |
| Gregorama (Austin, TX) | Posted: May 06, 2008 - 12:38 Nice prog rock elements. |
| PureGirl (Sirius) | Posted: May 06, 2008 - 12:37 I'm so liking the hell out of this tune. |

I heard something U2-esque for a second or two at the beginning.....it reminds me a little of Daddy's Gonna Pay for your Crashed Car off of Zooropa.  |

| alux (atop the pyramid) | Posted: May 26, 2007 - 16:59 Dude, listen to the vocalist growling. Bono doesn't growl. No matter how much he would like to. apd wrote: Good Lord - this ISN'T U2? I thought I was hearing a "Achtung Baby"-era b-side. |
| 2Hawks (Living in Theory -- where everything works) | Posted: Apr 25, 2007 - 06:01 Like this. Good choice.  |
| auburntigerrich (Mesa, AZ) | Posted: Mar 24, 2007 - 20:02 Tasty with a grabbing bassline... worth another look. |
| Alifreckles50 (Frederick, MD) | Posted: Mar 24, 2007 - 19:58 new stuff to my ears....I'm liking this very much  |

That's exactly what I was thinking. "Dark Side..." too. I half expected to hear that guy go, "I was really drunk at the time." |
| bokey | Posted: Jan 22, 2007 - 12:47 This kind of reachs out and grabs you by the ears. |
| hippiechick (Chi-town) | Posted: Oct 12, 2006 - 10:10 I always get Rubyhorse and Sparklehorse mixed up, something I can directly attribute to playing too much "My LIttle Pony"! |

| NutsyUK (London UK) | Posted: Jul 31, 2006 - 05:21 really rather cool stuff :D |
| cayenne (in over my head) | Posted: Jul 16, 2006 - 13:23 Why have I never heard of this band? Thanks, RP!!   |

| huebdoo | Posted: Mar 21, 2006 - 15:17 This reminds me of Jesus Jones when he was good |
| Cynaera (South of Neanderthal) | Posted: Nov 24, 2005 - 15:11 Not gonna read other comments - this is shooting from the hip. I LOVE it. It makes me want to fly, to write the perfect poem, to breathe the autumn air, to do everything I can possibly do in the time I have. Definitely gonna buy this one. They're inspiring. |
| RoyStudios | Posted: Mar 04, 2005 - 16:45 V Nice. Feels right. |
| Mikey (Brain dead in O-HI-O) | Posted: Jan 19, 2005 - 11:13 Not sure if this song gets a higher rating because it is a little more up-tempo than the rather dreary slow-tempo drivel that preceeds it. Eclectic means MIX IT UP. Give me a love, roller coaster, baby. |
| trekhead | Posted: Jan 19, 2005 - 11:11 STEREOPHONICS , too. |
| GolfRomeo (The Beach, South Carolina) | Posted: Jun 16, 2004 - 12:44 I can hear some background samples from Floyd's "Wish you were here"... |
| istanbulbaby (Asheville, NC) | Posted: Dec 02, 2003 - 13:48 Well, I think it is a happy song that makes me bounce around in my chair. |

| vanfan (Georgetown, MA) | Posted: Dec 19, 2002 - 10:56 Sounds like Zucchero! |
| rKokon (Colesville, MD) | Posted: Nov 29, 2002 - 21:55 Yes, yes, generic and unimaginative pop, with spacey moogy stuff that does not fit in the background. If these guys were landscapers, your yard would be a mishmash. ANd they can't sing. Suppress these dormice! This song seems like a ripoff of so many other people's. I feel sick.  |
| lordcruloze (Bellefonte, PA) | Posted: Nov 19, 2002 - 16:27 Wow, we should all just stop listening to anything new and resort to the albums we already own. They are the only things that could possibly be any good. Play all oldies! I only like it if I've heard it before! Give me the local Clearchannel classic rock station any time! But you're right. This song sucks. :) Originally Posted by (8?»:

Still hanging at #24 on the "Top New Tracks" playlist.
Why Bill? Why? Thousands of songs to choose from, yet I get to listen to this one almost daily. Music is timeless, but the new-loaded playlists are not. The Top New Tracks list is nothing more than the music drug packaged in its most efficient form. Yet another profit driven creation of the industry. Stop pushing, Bill! (please :( ) |

I can't think what Rubyhorse or Evergreen have to do with this music, which sounds like pretty generic pop. |
