junkbond_trader Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 It seems the band really likes this song. Playing it on tv and pushing it out there via commercial. I love seeing the clips of Wilco playing this song and Jeffs face when he hits the high notes. He looks like hes about to burst out laughing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WaronWar Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 It's a song that has been around for a while, and I know Jeff wrote it for Solomon Burke, but Burke didn't like it. So maybe the reason why it's not on SBS is it's not really meant to be a Wilco song. That's my guess. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lost highway Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 I seem to remember him saying something about how he got it to Burke too late for the album. Not so sure though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ction Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Apparently, Jeff hasn't stopped talking about rehab long enough to address this, and boy is it making me mad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Stewart Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Apparently, Jeff hasn't stopped selling out long enough to address this, and boy is it making me want to buy a VW. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WilcoFan Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 That seems to be the story.....it may show up on an album someday, who knows. LouieB Let's hope not. This song is not worth keeping around for future albums. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ianshaw Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 I don't know - I enjoy it. Music is supposed to be fun, right? But you know what I actually would really like? Getting to hear what Solomon Burke would do with it. Yowza. Don't Give Up On Me is such a brilliant record. I'm hoping for another one from Solomon of that caliber.
