Yuck...  this song sux...  sounds like a terrible ripoff of R.E.M.'s "Losing My Religion"...  and Johannes Sigmond's warbling voice gets old fast... Heavy Flowers is a terrible album...  the only decent song on the album is the first one...

If you want to refresh the comment page for a song, without cutting off the stream, click on the song title instead of using the "reload" button on your browser.

I only just caught the end of that song.  Stomping and whistling.  There's clapping in "Flame on My Head", right?  There's certainly nothing new about using "natural" musical instruments in song.  It's a nice to hear it being used.  I'm willing to give it another listen when it comes around again.

Cool! Not bad on first listen. I think he's trying to make a point.

It would seem that repetition is a characteristic of all music.  The repeated singing of the song title in this tune could be considered too repetitive to some ears, which would make the initial comment a more accurate one.  If someone finds this tune to be "too repetitive", then that's what they think of it; it's just odd how that criticism seems to be in the commentary for so many of the songs on the playlist - along with other familar favorites, such as "nail-on-a-chalkboard".

It only took seven comments before the "repetitive" comment appears in the thread for this tune.  How long before the other usual comments (nails on a chalkboard, derivative, a Beatles rip-off, sounds like Mumford & Sons, etc.) appear?  I don't find this song to be any more repetitive than most other songs, but I guess everyone hears different things.
