Standing still
But you've had your day
Had the face
But you won't stay
Slowed down, weighed down
Right into me
It's not right
Waved on, helped on
Right into you
Goodbye
Read your mind
But you have your needs
Hopeless times
But you are so pleased
Slowed down, weighed down
Right into me
It's not right
Waved on, helped on
Right into you
Goodbye

This cover reminds me of the Southern California office building of my nightmares - It is a mudslide earthquake wildfire crash into the ocean to be attacked by sharks waiting to happen. Engineers indeed, they will forever be Architects to me because of this cover.  Right on! By my iron ring secured firmly on the pinky of my working hand!! (It gets a 3 for the music too) |

shouldn't we keep the ratings strictly reflecting the MUSIC?  |

| merkin_muffley (Down the rabbit hole.....) | Posted: Apr 24, 2008 - 08:25 Not heard of these before. Really like the song. The Bio on AllMusic describes them perfectly....... |
| jim1964 (british columbia by way of bklyn) | Posted: Apr 24, 2008 - 08:24 I'd never heard of this band before I started listening to RP and although I'm not crazy about this kind of music, I do find that this song is starting to grow on me. |
| PureGirl (Sirus) | Posted: Feb 21, 2008 - 08:47 Never heard them before but I like their dreamy soundscape type of music. |

Me too, not too original but well done. |

(Not implying anyone here needs to take one, just that this song is like taking one) |
| Shesdifferent (Just visiting this planet) | Posted: Jun 14, 2007 - 22:16 Just caught the end of this...would like to hear it again. |
| Rafter101 | Posted: Mar 07, 2007 - 13:23 This song, and the CD it's on, is well worth owning if you like a super-hypnotic experience with great melodies. Too bad they only really have one stand-alone CD. |

Bedridden Robert Zimmerman (let's be serious and objective), empty Moby, Devo, Mazy Star and The Vines!!! Wahoooo... 
But here comes "music with soul" again with The Melodians and Little Richard. THX, RP! i can't tell if this is sarcasm or seriousness. either way it's a bit over the top.. |
| arcas2000 | Posted: Mar 07, 2007 - 13:15 This song really bites. |

But here comes "music with soul" again with The Melodians and Little Richard. THX, RP! For a second there I thought you were predicting the future. I think we're in the same set now, but I doubt the soul music is going to play this time around. Gotta say I like the harmony on this song. A good harmony gets me everytime. |

| MojoJojo (Indianapolis, IN USA) | Posted: Oct 25, 2006 - 12:09 Hey! I are an Engineer!  Or, as my friends say, an 'Enginerd". |
| lathyris (Austin, TX) | Posted: Oct 25, 2006 - 12:08 This is the kind of band name that you would have sworn would have already been taken. Well, much like "The Vines," coincidentally. |
