Calexico Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 easy kid, you'll shoot yer eye out It's all fun and games until someone loses an eye. My mother said that. She also told me to "get your fucking head outta the fridge!" She was volatile like that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WilcoFan Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 This song reminds me of High Heat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Artifex Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 I think it's the most obviously soul-influenced one I've heard of the studio recordings. A couple years ago I would've groaned, but now it just makes me smile. Great opener in my mind as far as Wilco goes. Another 'wtf are they doing' moment from the people that are expecting an avant-garde experience from Wilco. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
