"I leave in the morning, I don't wanna go"
I said to the teller "If this is the future,
I don't wanna know I don't wanna know"
"Fives and tens" said the guy behind the bar
"Twenty-five says he don't"
You cut a nice figure of a family
I don't know I don't know
I have a fear of flying
I think I have a fear of him
I'm afraid of meaning
Nothing again
After all this is over
This is over after all
We cut a nice figure of a family
I don't know I don't know
Can I be stupid for a minute?
I was looking at that half-empty glass
Waiting for the waiter
You don't have to listen to this
Tell me what to say
| aspicer (Chicago, IL) | Posted: May 02, 2013 - 09:50 SUCH a great album. If you like TM and don't have this - get it now! ;-) ...apparently I feel passionate, having mentioned this last year too!!! |
| 1wolfy (Mission Viejo California) | Posted: May 02, 2013 - 09:49 I like how this moves about like a warped record. |

| onelittlemoose (Mooseville, Canada) | Posted: Apr 04, 2012 - 10:06 Likewise here. Once again, a band that's been around awhile, but never heard of them till RP. Eros92450 wrote: Haven't heard them until now. Like what I've just listened to! |
| soulcollision (Vancouver, BC) | Posted: Apr 04, 2012 - 10:04 whatever this is, i dig! |
| aspicer (Chicago, IL) | Posted: Mar 19, 2012 - 08:14 Classic TM! One of their best albums IMHO. a must have album if you liked this tune. Could certainly use more TM on RP!!! |
| Eros92450 (Loveland, Colorado) | Posted: Mar 03, 2012 - 17:47 Haven't heard them until now. Like what I've just listened to! |
| calypsus_1 | Posted: Nov 29, 2011 - 13:09 Throwing Muses is an alternative rockband formed in 1981 in Newport, Rhode Island, that toured and recorded extensively until 1997, when its members began concentrating more on other projects. The group was originally fronted by two lead singers, Kristin Hersh and Tanya Donelly, two singers that I appreciate very, who both wrote the group's songs. Members are: Kristin Hersh, David Narcizo, Bernard Georges. Tanya Donelly, Leslie Langston. Fred Abong. Elaine Adamedes, Becca Blumen. |
| paulmack (the hissing swamps) | Posted: Nov 16, 2010 - 11:06 Personally, I love the Muses. Crazy is often interesting (and not necessarily in the 'train wreck' sense). If you like the Muses but haven't explored them much, you might also want to check out Kristen Hersh's solo work. |

| Essbee (Big Bend Region, Texas) | Posted: Oct 16, 2009 - 08:40 Sounds like Orchards & Vines. |

I thought the exact freakin' same thing. I do NOT, however, love this song. |
