Am I the only one who thinks this a great Heartbreakers song.
Ive never seen it discussed on the boards. What a tune. If you find it somewhere enjoy the Piano and the band as whole! Cheers, TP73 |

Yeah just a very good song in my opinion...very solid rocker. I love Tom's spoken word verse too "Look at them peaches, red clay and peaches hanging from a tree". |

Love that song. Especially back to back with "Lost Without You." I wish they'd bring that 1-2 combo back.

I cant believe this song was released on the Superhighway tour!
If Mike and Tom read my thread, they would have been saying..... Shut your pie hole Caz, you just ruined our next week´s surprise! Cheers, TP71+2 |

I wasn't too familiar with this song until downloading it on the superhighway tour. I've been listening over and over.
The spoken word part is kind of eerie to me. It brings to my mind Billie Holiday's "Strange Fruit", which is such a horrific and shocking song (and magnificent). It's Tom's tone of voice that gives me that feeling, like he's giving a warning. Yet the rest of the song sounds like an Elvis Presley rocker. I end up feeling unsettled. I'm not sure yet of my opinion. I would like to know of any story behind the song. |
