| metrophage (Second star on the right, straight on 'til morning...) | Posted: Sep 18, 2008 - 06:39 I had this song at a 2 until it was over. Then I was so happy I rated it a 10. Just kidding. It's still a 2. Ow, my poor, bleeding ears... |

| gabbadar | Posted: Jul 02, 2008 - 14:06 This was a 7 until I realized he does almost an identical, abrasive, wild-holler-thing as in "Icarus Wings".. |

Me, too; plus it's a good message! |
| RadioDoc (Chicagoland) | Posted: Jul 02, 2008 - 14:02 Hmmm...I just can't seem to find a handle on this one. A 5 for now. |
| cattail321 | Posted: Jun 29, 2008 - 20:26 doo doo happens |
| hopper99 (Germany) | Posted: Jun 26, 2008 - 14:41 Good music to be executed to. Standing against a wall, waiting for the gunfire. Seeing your new found lover crying in the distance.
Weep no more. Weird fantasy - I thought, at first. But after a while I thought you got it quite right. Wouldn´t want to get executed though. Not to this song or any other. I´ll give it a 7. No, a 6. |

| Gednabb (New York City) | Posted: Jun 26, 2008 - 14:38 yucky ending, methinks. |
| TerryS (The other SW) | Posted: Jun 26, 2008 - 14:36 Jeff Buckley, meet Nina Simone. |

| universal_bee (floriduh) | Posted: Jun 03, 2008 - 12:23 yeah, i don't sense any of the subtlety or vocal softness in this tune that i get from nearly all of jeff buckley's. agree about the ick at the end. |
| ca1vinandhobbes (Atlanta, GA) | Posted: Jun 03, 2008 - 12:22 lyrics seem a bit cheesy, but i like the sound. |
| amatura3 (Alpharetta, Georgia, USA) | Posted: Jun 03, 2008 - 12:21 Don't like his voice. |

| copymonkey (in the northeast, but not near anywhere cool) | Posted: Jun 03, 2008 - 12:16 Jeff Buckley much? *edit--oops, already noted by someone else. |
| morgsy67 (Cape Cod, MA, USA) | Posted: May 29, 2008 - 09:57 People are constantly bashed here for saying "sounds like him, her, them" Truth is that just about everyhing under the sun has been done. this song sounds like something that I have heard before- I do like it alot but I wouldn't say that it's the most exiting new artist of 2008. Which might leave a lingering question "well, who is?" I don't know- the year is only half over and Bill has some more tracks to spin. ...um, if I can find my walley, I'll get out the credit card and send that support that I've been meaning to;) |
| NanMac | Posted: May 29, 2008 - 09:44 Hmm. This is a tough one. On first listen, it sounds too meandering and too unfocused. |
| tiggers | Posted: May 29, 2008 - 09:43 It would be OK if he chose to keep quiet |

| ArbiterOfGoodTaste (Seattle, WA) | Posted: May 29, 2008 - 09:43 Musically it's fine, but when he really started wailing for a second, I briefly hit mute. Eesh. |
| Nanners63 (Sugar Hill, GA) | Posted: May 29, 2008 - 09:42 I'm really liking and enjoying it! |

| rtrudeau (Bay Area, California) | Posted: May 29, 2008 - 09:39 Ooo I love being first! He reminds me a bit of Jeff Buckley. Very nice. |
