needs more "chicken!!!!!"

it's a fuckin' sin that Joe Henry isn't a major star. Always surprised to not see him getting more love in these parts

I can't get this song out of my head. I put it on the car the other day, and my wife says "of course you're obsessed with it, that intro sounds straight off a DBT album".

masterful, masterful songwriting

Bob Hund - They are from Sweden - singing in a south Swedish accent making it quite hard to understand sometimes even for Scandinavians. Translation more or less sticking to the original lyrics of Pure Ubu. Great Band. I wasn't aware it was a "cover" until years later.

Think this is my favorite of theirs. Belongs in this thread for sure.

You sure did let Johnny Cash down
Now that they've put him in the ground
You hang his poster on your ceiling
His songs give you a real good feeling
And you sure do let Johnny Cash down

Where were you in 1989?
When it looked like Johnny was on the decline
His career was fading
And his shows weren't selling
You were listening to heavy metal
And you sure do let Johnny Cash down

And you sure do let Johnny Cash down
Now that they've put him in the ground
The radio station plays him all the time
Too bad you hardly played him when he was alive
But you sure do like Johnny Cash now
Yeah you sure do like Johnny Cash now

And you sure did like when he sang the Nine Inch Nails
When he looked like he was dying in that video
You liked that did ya?
He was givin' them the finger
Too bad they can't bottle that religion
But you sure do like Johnny Cash now
But you sure do like Johnny Cash now
But you sure do like Johnny Cash now

Time Machine by Cracker....one of the best punk song of the last 10 years (play it loud)

*****

Which gets me to this great album, Cracker's Sunrise in the Land of Milk and Honey.

Of course it has the fun duet w/ Patterson, Friends: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nA3rDnZ ... 0afGBD7aBN...

....but also an inspiration for Ever South? Stay with me on this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ciCmIka ... 0afGBD7aBN....at least the first 2 minutes?

And with one of my all-time favorite Cracker songs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8C2UyI- ... 0afGBD7aBN, Darling One.

all time nail it vocals of all time.

wow.

After all these years it just hit me that this is the best Todd Rundgren song that Todd never made.
