| nimbus | Posted: Jul 13, 2010 - 04:57 Thank you bbryan well said. Bill as long as you play diverse music I will support you. Gatlinburger has induced me to increase my support. |
| bbryant321 (Charlotte, NC) | Posted: Jun 11, 2010 - 08:27 Funny that you would cancel your support because of one song, or even a dozen songs. You must have some great FM around your area of the world to turn to. On the east coast of the US there there are no FM stations that compare to RP. I don't know about you, but in order to hear all sorts of new things I expect that I won't like some. It's the price of admission. Gatlinburger wrote: Bill, this song sucks. Please stop playing it. I cancelled my support (as little as it was) in a large part because of your insistence on playing this crap... Listen to the words... Every cliche, BS kinda crap, looking for a rhyme, set to a 70's cover band soundtrack... What is your fascination w/ this dude? It sucks! |

| Segue (Almost Paradise) | Posted: Apr 26, 2010 - 15:31 Yummy voice. Norway rocks. Like the lyric. |
| westslope (BC coast) | Posted: Apr 15, 2010 - 13:10 How's the rest of the CD? Madrugada's CDs were a tad uneven. |
| wbeaver | Posted: Apr 15, 2010 - 13:09 Upped my rating. This dude just sounds good - as does his Madrugada work...I owe RP for both... |
| bitterdave (Orinda, CA) | Posted: Apr 15, 2010 - 13:09 Sounds like they borrowed Peter Buck from R.E.M. |
| thediceareloaded (Berlin, Germany) | Posted: Apr 15, 2010 - 13:06 Madrugada meets A-ha? |

But I can understand your attitude. Americans are among the highest per capita narcotics users in the world. |

I am still always surprised to see that Madrugada is Norwegian...this time cued by his last name :) Norwegians have always had a fascination with the 'south': Morocco, Spain, Italy. Understandable given the northerly latitude of country. Madrugada is Spanish and Portugese for the dawn. The first light. The adventurer Thor Heyerdahl—a source of inspiration for all Norwegians including the diaspora—settled in Italy where he could be warm, by the sea, and see mountains. |

It would be difficult for anyone, especially a casual observer to determine Robert's intent, thus relegating the "killed himself" portion of No_Where_Man's statement to the "dubious conclusion" category. We only know Robert died as a result of an overdose, we don't know if he did it intentionally. If you are doing drugs at all, you are killing yourself. |
| floydoftherocks (Frisco) | Posted: Mar 08, 2010 - 06:38 madrugada and associated acts is sort of like RP's 'life is a highway' — a bit overplayed... |
| Sjaaks (Horst, Netherlands) | Posted: Mar 03, 2010 - 07:47 I love this song, definitely a 9. BUT!!! The production is utter crap!! When listening to this with it hurts my ears. The recording is way too loud, therefor it all sounds really distorted.... ![]() |

And while I'll agree that he has a great voice, this song is just mediocre at best.

Any number of '70s cover bands could have come up with something better than this. Sorry, but I just don't get the adoration of this guy... But he said, and I quote: "I'm going to give this the best that I got." Plus, he has one of those o's with a slash through it in his name. Seriously, what's not to like? |
| donna_birichina (right where I should be) | Posted: Feb 24, 2010 - 07:17 This song got my attention from the laundry in the other room. I like it! It does, however, make me want it to be 1985 again. |

Is Majesty just one of those perfect moments or what? Was it the synnergy of Madrugada? Opinions. . . . One cannot be paramount all the time and yes, probably it is the synergy. I guess this is one of the classic band-member-goes-solo situations, which by the way is respectable in this case considering the unfortunate death of Robert Burås, where comparing is inevitable but likewise unfair. Sivert's voice is unmistakable but he might happen to want to make other, slightly boring, admitted, music than (with) Madrugada. Still it raises a fair interest to other tracks of the same album. |
