I listen to Radio Paradise to avoid hearing dreck like this. It was painful. I actually stopped the stream until it was done.

I had this playing on my iPod the other night. The dog heard the word "walk" -- dogs have real sensitive hearing, you know -- and there she was, nudging me, going over to where her leash is stowed and coming back again.

It's become the dog's official theme song of her favorite activity.

I like the song, and think the album is pretty damn close to perfect. I frankly can't say there's anything that I'd skip over and not unlike the last 4 or 5 Water's Floyd albums, it's pretty much a full blown concept album.

There's nothing about it that's like American Idol. Frankly, when I hear it, I frequently think of Pink Floyd. Not because it sounds like Pink Floyd, but because virtually every song segues into the next and like every Floyd album from DSOTM through the Final Cut, it's a full blown concept album.

Oh - she did some work with Conjure One (also on RP playlist) a few years ago somehow. Check it out.


If not for RP, I never would have gotten this album...Love it.

Not totally familiar with Poe so I'm assuming she's related to pop industry stuff. It's okay I guess


Last time I heard her in a "Pop" fashion, was when "Hello" came out in 1994 or 1995. Definately not pop industry stuff here.

Apparently there were a few issues with the label, they got into it and some clause in her contract kept her from recording/touring for a 7 year period, which should be expired now. She was tracking a new album back in 2006, but I haven't seen any updates in quite some time. Check her Myspace page (don't have the link handy, blocked at work).

I thought it was Pink. Or the person that won the first American Idol competition. They should consider replacing Linda Perry as the songwriter for that genre. Not that there is anything wrong with that, I LIKE some of Pink's music.

This is the sort of music that causes me to turn the volume down. My personal impression is that it's unpleasantly discordant and irritating. As always, I'm open to hearing stuff I don't normally listen to--which is what I like about Bill's range. Anyway, I don't mean to simply diss music I don't care for, just want to put out my honest impression, both thumbs up and down. Thumbs down on this selection.


Taken out of context of the whole album this song does indeed grate if you're not familiar with it. Perhaps there is an assumption that Poe has been experienced sufficiently by all to appreciate this track. If one has heard it in its entirety, then IMHO, you would truly "get" this selection. Brilliant.

I have to agree most of the other comments. That was the worst Poe song I've heard yet and one of the worst on RP. Wonder how it got on the playlist. To top it off, Bill plays Pink Floyd's "Fearless" (an 11.5) next to make matters worse.

Rock on Bill.

I like this.I also find it disturbing that so many of my fellow RP listeners are familiar enough with the Spice Girls that they hear them in this.Maybe if my brain was rotted from listening to that I'd hate the world too.

That was the first time I'd ever heard that song, or heard of Poe.

I thought it kicked, and on the strength of it, just purchased it through BMG (was shocked they had it).

Nobody complained when Sinatra sang "My Way". Well, maybe they complained when David Lee Roth did, but that is another story.

I think it's kinda groovy...
