| renegade_X (My House) | Posted: Jul 31, 2008 - 12:15 Great song. The whole album is a must listen to. |

I don't see how this song remotely sounds like Christian Rock. This song is arguably about Paul and Jesus, it's true, but it is most certainly not a traditional Christian viewpoint. |
| jjbix (san diego) | Posted: May 29, 2008 - 12:36 TOAD put out some decent songs. |
| auburntigerrich (Edge of the 'Verse) | Posted: May 29, 2008 - 12:36 Still my favorite track from this album...but I still need to take the plunge and buy one. |
| Krow_Pie (Venice, California) | Posted: Mar 27, 2008 - 12:22 SO BAD |

| dharmanavy (Sandiego) | Posted: Aug 20, 2007 - 12:56 Is Paul Simon aware that somebody stole his voice and lyrics?... Or is it just me talking about myself in the fourth person again?  |

TTWS's? Is that anything like ROUS's? haha |

Agreed - and for me the best song. |

| taterflatpicker (Staring at Prairie Dawgs, Midwesterly Middle of Here) | Posted: Jan 14, 2007 - 23:29 Prolific. |
| moonbat (Flying Low and Avoiding The Radar) | Posted: Dec 16, 2006 - 21:11 Hmm...I wonder if the narrator is supposed to be Thomas? Interesting progressive viewpoint. Beautiful song--one of Toad's best. |
| natural_tools (Dallas, TX) | Posted: Nov 17, 2006 - 16:24 One of my favorite songs ever. I love the choice of words. |

Thanks, to runchadrun for the lyrics and Yes, I kinda thought so myself. |
| cptbuz (El Dorado Hills, CA) | Posted: Aug 21, 2006 - 21:15 just saw these guys with Big Head Todd & the monsters...wasn't impressed with Toad at all, Todd on the other hand rocked! |
| Odyzzeuz (Austin, Texas) | Posted: Jun 09, 2006 - 15:40 TTWS's sound strikes me as a cliche. The drumming in this song really hits me that way. It's not awful. Just sounds like an echo of 80s mainstream rock. A solid 3. |
| Jacksonstat (Columbus OH) | Posted: May 11, 2006 - 11:53 Why oh why do I still not have an Toad in my music collection? I must do something about that immediately! |
| CCinSB | Posted: May 11, 2006 - 11:45 My hometown boyz. |
| amymich (Over the hills and far away) | Posted: May 11, 2006 - 11:42 This is new to me, and I've yet to hear a Toad song I don't love. Thanks for playing them! |
| jlind (Chicago, IL) | Posted: May 11, 2006 - 11:42 Been a while since I heard these guys, good call Bill. |

| coloradojohn (Setagaya-ku, Tokyo, Japan) | Posted: Apr 12, 2006 - 08:14 Hmm, I was just thinking, now what could Bill play to keep this thing afloat? I feel guilty for not playing this entire record in weeks if not months... Great stuff... Yoroshiku onegaishimasu, Bill-san, itsumo! Domo!       |

| Cdog (532 Miles South of Paradise, CA) | Posted: May 24, 2005 - 02:18 Seeing the lyrics certainly changes my appreciation of this song |
| asmythe (houston, tx) | Posted: Apr 24, 2005 - 19:52 always loved that album and particularly that song |
| moshevelvul | Posted: Mar 26, 2005 - 10:53 oooooh, yuk. How 80's mor, gimme a lobotomy sounding. banal, banal, banal. Don't care if the lyrics are good, the, and I use the term loosely, music, ruins it. |

Lyrics, kind RPers? A 9, but I like to know what is going on. Paul is making me nervous Paul is making me scared Walk into this room and swaggers Like he's God's own messenger Change the name of my brother Change the things that he said Says that he speaks to him But he never even knew the man But I'd give my life for him Like water through my hands You'd give him any ending But if he's all you say Would he fly from heaven To this world again To this world again Take whatever you're needing Take whatever you can We are broken from within Run to another land Water through my hands Or is it just beginning But if he's all you say Would he fly from heaven To this world again To this world again They took my brother They ripped him from me To twist his words as they did his body Denied his family Denied his beauty To lay him down at the feet Of those he couldn't save Couldn't save, couldn't save Will it be the end Or is he still ascending But if he's all you say Would he fly from heaven To this world again, to this world again |
