so, dizz knee land = prison?

This hasn't aged well. 

For me, a "stop what you're doing, turn it up, and enjoy" song.


Edit: now feeling somewhat compelled to learn to play this song.   (bass)  Hope I can get my brother or son to learn the guitar bits.

Solid album from start to finish!

He just caught the coronavirus,
He's going to Dizz Knee Land.
Well, as soon as they open it up - Mayday, Mayday!

This three piece was sooo solid. All could sing, all really good musicians, lyrics were smart, killer live sets, tasty solos, pretty much had it all.

Such a ripping good guitar solo to end this track. A road trip favorite.

order caught in a spining wheel.
Song: Dizz Knee Land
Artist: Dada
Album: Puzzle
Released: 1992
has been playing here in Vienna Austria since 08.00.
To be fair, Kate Bush got stuck on the moutain for 5 hours once

& i think they are doing a block thing where if you do not contribute financially, you get the loop effect....i changed to the different channel, & got the same effect after the song finished....i love radio paradise, but cannot afford to contribute financially due to my situation....would rather that wasn't the case....

I noticed this happening once before - it went on for a while.  I tried switching to the Mellow channel but got the same thing. Now on the My Favourites and that seems to be working OK.

It's been playing for 2 hours now ... so that must be 30 times!
And 31 ....

Don't worry, I'm sure they'll wake up before we hit 100

THIS is the song stuck on repeat?? 4th time I think?

Let's all go to Dezz Knee Land and silence him ;)

It just happened the very same way here!

The other day RP suddenly started to play the next music over the current one, resulting in a very odd mix... Is this AI being trained? 

a switch to my favourites needed for a while....

"Thank you, we're the  Dada Band, if you have any requests, shout em' out!"
"Play that same song."
"Alright, same song, here we go."

how many times do you still want to play dizz knee land? so whats up on your computer? hello mr. goldsmith, are you still there??

For the time being I suggest listening to Beatles Radio instead! And in a few hours or so we all can return here.

Groundhog day!

He should have arrived to Dizz Knee Land by now.

I think we may be caught in some sort of Dada Paradox!

Played 4 times over so far

Caught in a wormhole: 
Song, "Thanks for listening",
Song, "Thanks for listening",
Song, "Thanks for listening",
Song, "Thanks for listening",
Song, "Thanks for listening"...

I'm losing the will to live! Please, no more Dizz Knee Land 

After 6 times I know the text by heart

Must be a technical glitch. Looking at the time, our friends in California must be asleep zzzzzz... Give them a break! In the mean time, if you've recorded a cache, play that, sit back and enjoy.

And again... and again... and again.... I'm getting Dizzkny!

There’s a glitch in The Matrix. That’s the third time in a row that this has played. 

Can you give the Auto-Bill machine a nudge please? 😊

Everybody is asleep in Paradise

Bill, Rebecca? you alright guys?

Mellow Mix seems to be broken this way too.
Hopefully everything is alright there!

is it going' to play all day ??

This song played, then the RP "thanks for listening" message followed, and then the song started again from the beginning and is now playing again. Odd.

so it's not just me?... i though it's just happening to me haha

How many times did I hear it today on RP? 9 times already, non-stop. Gonna learn this song by the end of the hour!

Great tune. 

those harmonies, mmm. precise guitar work, driving beat, biting lyrics, oh yea!

Trump still has one apologist?

Bump.  And all the hate mail is so unspecific about why the hate.  No value added.  Haters, what is so visceral about this song?

Not Dada's best, but love how completely relevant it still is.  They produce the fullest sound from a 3 piece.  "I just flipped off president trump"...  every day

One of the WORST songs played on RP.... just aweful

What the f**k is this!!?

It is so cool.

How come there are an INFINITE number of remarkable bands with terrific music??

Long time, no hear.  Kicky little ditty.  Nice to hear again.

Utterly Horrible

Reading the 11 year old comments below is so fun, especially in light of everything happening now!

Great Song

Not the first time insightful and acerbic social commentary was disguised as a pleasant little pop tune. 
Not the first time many folk missed that.  

Rubbish...reminds me of Presidents of the United States of America "Movin to the country gonna eat a lot of Peaches" song

Dadaesque, no? 

not my favorite Dada song...this one is a red-hot mess from the very beginning

 wow this is really dated, drummer kickin it tho..

Man, this is lame. 1.

Lots of tuneful and rocking Dada music has been made and recorded. 

Nicely done. I don't get the hate.
Read the lyrics: "Dizz Knee Land" ain't uncle Walt's theme park.

Love you guys - Michael, Joie and Phil - 
 

Yeah! Great song and great band!

Hey Bill, play "Bob the Drummer" from "El Subliminoso"...

See I'm tryin' to start this rock band
And my drummer really needed a kit
He's really into Bonham and Ozzy
You know he really likes to hit

So we spent our days lookin' at drum ads
'Cause neither one of us had a job
We circles this one cool offer
'Cheap drums ask for Bob'

We jumped into my pinto
And we flew over to his place
We ran up the stairs and knocked on the door
Enter Robert's face
...

Then, GO. Quickly.

Stupid retard. Dump this crap!

Gawd this is an AWFUL song! Kill it with fire!

awesome 90s classic

20 years on, pretty bad then - pretty bad now.

They had better songs that never had airplay. ;-)    Feel Me Dont You / Feet to the Sun 

Thank God for PSD!

What a joy to hear after the recent downer songs RP just played. Miss the early 90s...

Well said. There are far too many dolts that think "banter" equals wit. 

Adrian Belew's OH Daddy would be a good follow up to this

I just flipped off President George...WHICH ONE?

Sounds like a crappy cover band's only original song.

Haven't heard this in forever. lol Good guitar solo at the end.

Perhaps one of the most annoying chorus's ever.....

Back in grad school - woohoo!

No, actually, it was the 8 years of watching the country I love getting flushed down the tubes by a bunch of pseudo-Cons, all the while hearing blowhards like Joe the Plumber and the Fox "News" crew spew the kind of nonsense you seem to like to parrot.  It can irritate a guy after a while.  And then to see someone who used to be respectable submit a retard in heels as his best pick for his successor and people take it seriously — well, it shakes one's faith in the intelligence of one's countrymen.

So when some old fool comes along and regurgitates verbatim the brainless sludge being spewed by the idiots at Fox "News" (despite the easily demonstrable truth being quite the contrary) I have no patience for it anymore.  So other than being a fool, don't flatter yourself — it wasn't anything you did that "set me off".  You were just being the good dittohead.

It must have been my comment on Starbucks-Sipping, iPod-Stroking generation that set him off.

makes me want to CRANK IT UP!!

I haven't heard this in years, what a great song.

lwilkinson wrote:

Speaking as a member of the generation that graduated high school when Reagan was in power, let me clear a few things up for ya:

1. I've been paying taxes for quite a while, and the Republicans aren't doing me any favors. Not only are my taxes not low, but I'll be paying for dubya's fiscal irresponsibility for years (and the Democrats will get blamed for trying to fix dubya's fiscal mess). Saying that Obama wants to triple taxes shows that you're either completely ignorant of the facts, or just shilling for the right wing. Either way, you're being their tool. Stop being a tool, ok?

2. If/when another president fabricates evidence to enter a war of choice against a country that is no threat to us, I'll call for their removal as well. And don't tell me about what a bad man Hussein was. I know. He was just as bad when the Reagan administration was enabling his use of chemical weapons. I don't bring that up because Reagan was a Republican. I bring that up because all the pseudo-cons conveniently forget who put Hussein in his position of power.

3. If/when another president shits all over the constitution as this one has done, I will call for their removal as well. This idiot and his puppet master Cheney make Nixon look like a harmless little schoolgirl. And Nixon's lawyer, who did time for his actions, will tell you that, too.

4. Your holier-than-thou because you're older-than-thou attitude makes you look silly, and shows that you have no idea what you're talking about when it comes to other people. I work very hard, and I don't like taxes, especially the ones that are spent wastefully (like wars of choice, for example). I'm surrounded by 20 and 30-somethings who share my values.  Incidentally, I also don't like Starbucks. I don't even like coffee.  But since your generation has let us down and my generation has let us down by allowing the idiot in chief to remain in power, perhaps the Starbucks-Sipping, iPod-Stroking generation will get off its collective ass and force a change from business as usual.  That's better than your generation or my generation did.

5. I love this song and this band. I loved this song before the idiot got into power. And I love the fact that it brings the small-minded out to attack Clinton or Obama because they wrongly think dubya's being attacked. Since they can't say anything in defense of the idiot in charge because there IS no defense for the idiot in charge, the only alternative left for them is to go on the Fox "News" style defense, which is to distract from the issue by attacking Clinton or Obama on some unrelated issue. That, or just outright lying.

6. I'm not a Democrat. I vote for whoever the best (or in most cases the least pathetic) candidate is. In 2000, McCain was my choice, but he was swift-boated (before the term was even coined) by the handlers of the current jackass in power. Unfortunately, the McCain of 2000 is dead. The zombie that possesses his body bears only a physical resemblance to the John McCain of 2000.

7. 

Bumps-a-daisy!

I think that the problem in recent decades has become not one of Donkey's or 'Phants in office or one of political philosophies at work but rather that of the country has become too big, it has too many competing sub-categories of whining voters, it has too many greedy bastards standing around with one hand in your wallet and the other hand on your wife's boob and the world has become too complex with too many differing crisis'du'joire' crying for attention. Solution? Naw, ain't one. Since the IPod stroking, Starbucks sucking crowd (even tho' a really big % of them were in high school when the planes hit hit the toweres and have no true experience working for a living and paying taxes) has spent the last 8 years yelling about how "bad" Bushies' are then I'll spend the next 8 years on this forum yelling about how bad the Obama-bot's are in their race to triple taxes across the board and bankrupt us all. What's sauce for the goose is most certainly sauce for the gander.

actually, this song was written during Bush I presidency... and it still totally rocks! CaptTofu wrote:

Wow, this song bugs me every time...partly because it's kinda formulaic, but mostly because the freakin' Disney line is repeated over and over and over and over...yes, they're good musicians, but I'd be very happy to never hear this one again. -Just for the record, Bush Jr. and his greedy band of henchmen are BY-FAR the worst batch of presidential administrators this country has ever had. Anyone who says otherwise doesn't know his/her a$$ from a slingshot. Read a book, take a class, get your facts straight.

alph wrote:"Win?" Only in their wingnut fever-dreams. Ideology and bumper-sticker jingoism passing for patriotism. But you gotta admit, that particular wing-nut's incoherent rant was good for a few laughs. Almost made me enjoy the song, seeing how it raised his blood-pressure.

Anyway, there are people who are intelligent and generally vote republican to protect their own interests. I could see an argument for selfishness, but that is it

I am NOT digging this song at all.

Somehow it's not enough to talk about how good or bad GWB is, but rather to discuss how bad Bill Clinton was in the now-irrelevant decade of the 90s). The point is that no amount of chill pills will tame a modern-day Republican prepared for an argument. They will win every time, regardless of circumstances or reason.

What great high school memories!

Nice guitar!
