I've been noticing a scary trend. Radioparadise has been moving farther from everything it was when I started listening and closer to "easy listening" every day. This is one of the few songs left on the playlist that echo of what radioparadise used to be.

Wether I like the song or not doesn't matter, If I wanted to listen to only the songs I liked, I'd not waste someone else's (extremely expensive) bandwidth to listen to a music stream.

The worst song on the album? (Not IMO, I uploaded this one :-)) It's sometimes a challenge to predict which songs RP will accept, so I usualy choose cuts that I think have a greater chance than the more creative versions that I think many RP listeners would appreciate. I already tried uploading the two songs I think are the best on the CD ("Maggie" and "Gimme One More Chance", a truly kick-ass rocker that I wish RP had accepted) and both were declined very quickly (not sure why).

Greenland is less about the bar-room pleasing rockers of their past, and more about an introspective look at aging and better times before, so it may not have as immediate appeal as Kerosene Hat say, but I think it's rewarding after repeated listens. I saw them at the Fillmore last week in S.F., and their live show is still one of the best around, although David was a little more reserved than other shows in the past (although he still spits out his lyrics in a visible spray, and Johnny Hickman's guitar work is such a joy to watch live...)

I agree. This is probably the worst song on the album. Give "Gimme One More Chance" a listen. Damn good song, especially Hickman's guitar solo. I wish RP would upload this.

I've been a HUGE Cracker fan since their first album came out in 1992, and have seen them at least 10-12 times anytime they come through Chicago. Though I do like the new album, I really miss the intensity and energy of some of their earlier work. They've kind of mellowed out as they've aged. However, they are still a fantastic live act, and always a put on a great show.

Certainly there is something on this new album that is more aurally rewarding than this tune. I have a couple of the older Cracker CD's (Kerosene Hat & The Golden Age) and I can listen to every track on both CD's over and over. But this song, Man! You just want it to end! I hope you can dig a little deeper and find something more airworthy.

First Cracker album I ever bought; I like it alot

Boring song, but at least they are right. Democrats are polling far higher than Republicans for 2006. Here's hoping for a return to sanity (e.g. impeachment).
