Everybody wants to tell thier neighbors how to live
But nobody wants to listen to how they feel

Geez, this is really rich from a song that's pretty peachy to begin with. Why don't you start at home Mr. Franti?

"Believe in co-existence."

What loathsome treacle.

He just speaks sincerely from the heart. Nuance does not apply here.

Even more, the chords to Dear God by XTC! Exactly!


That's what I heard too. I was thinking it was an acoustic version of Dear God right up until he started singing. Still, I wonder if this was intentional. Dear God was one of the most controversial songs of its time, so perhaps Franti wanted to get a bit of that going here...

It's okay but I can't stand the chorus.

I thought this was Martin Sexton (not a bad thing).

This sounds like a late night stoned jam...

not that there's anything wrong with that... Just that it never gets to a chorus... not that I've ever had any experience with that...
