bobbob1313 Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Nothing. I haven't heard this song since like the first time I watched the DVD, or something. But if I did, it would probably be the Living Room Show, when he sang it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DAngerer09 Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 When I listen to it, it makes me think it should be a song on the new album. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jhh4321 Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 a white 2007 Volkswagen Jetta with 4 corner independent suspension Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EL the Famous Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 The bloodcurdling scream of art being bludegeoned to death by Jeff Tweedy w/ a hubcap from a Jetta or, played backwards, I hear Ozzy Osbourne's 'Suicide Solution'...sung by Pat Sansone or, perhaps, your Mom.

aricandover Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 the Abbey Pub show from Jan. 2006. it was the first time he played the song live, but all the crowd cared about hearing was themselves and "Henry and the H-Bombs" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kalle Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Jeff's awesome falsetto. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bobbob1313 Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Jeff's awesome falsetto. Yeah, I actually probably think of him laughing during the "Why you think I'm leaving" part in Sunken Treasure pretty early on after I hear about the song. Maybe the 3rd thing I think of.

caliber66 Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 "Why you think I'm leaving" part in Sunken TreasureYeah, that's actually the very first thing I was thinking of. Thought it was Conan, but on further reflection, it's the bit from the DVD. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Beltmann Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 I always think about them performing it on Conan.dcdThe first thing I think of is how much I like it. Then the Conan performance. The VW ad doesn't even make the list, although the threads about it might, if I cared to think about that when listening to music. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yermom Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Sunken Treasure DVD for me as well...closely followed by the Conan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Rufer Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 I actually wonder why Jeff counts the song in when he plays the openning riff unaccompanied. I mean, wouldn't his playing the riff serve that purpose for the band? Why would he need to set the tempo for himself? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
So Long Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Conan, and I imagine them playing it in the loft. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ction Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 To be honest, I hardly ever listen to Wilco, so I doubt this scenario happen for me anytime soon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
