uwmryan Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Great song indeed. I like that much more than I did "Hold Time" - can't wait to hear the whole thing tonight. We'll see if I can stay up that late. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kalle Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I found it pretty boring personally, if by classic you mean "sounds virtually the same as the past two records" then I guess so. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stooka Posted January 13, 2009 Author Share Posted January 13, 2009 "I'm so high, I need a bring-me-down." I love it! See ya'll tonight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
solace Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 I found it pretty boring personally, if by classic you mean "sounds virtually the same as the past two records" then I guess so. sometimes not messing with a formula that works is best IMO. that said... i honestly don't think it sounds "virtually the same as the past two records".i'll admit i'm biased, as Matt is my favorite solo artist of the '00's, but i still will call a turd a turd when i hear it.

okp greg Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 I really like the sound of Stars of Leo, but it did kind of remind me of Cosmopolitan Pap. With that said I still love his music, and was going to bed early tonight until I saw this freakin post & remembered! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

solace Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 "he put his name in my chorus, and the dock before the dawn, so that in my time of weakness i'll remember it's his song, he's got a line in the water, he's a fisher of men, he's got a lot on the line, he's a fisher of men."

Wendy Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Love "Fisher Of Men"Me too - gorgeous! I can't wait to hear his version of Oh Lonesome Me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stooka Posted January 13, 2009 Author Share Posted January 13, 2009 I'm not so crazy about Lucinda's contribution. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
solace Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 I'm not so crazy about Lucinda's contribution. i'm divided on it... on one hand when she comes in it's like a fucking ghost or something... but at the same time i don't know how well their voices go together. i'd probably just have preferred that song w/ just him (as he played it down in Austin last year) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wendy Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 It grew on me as the song went on. But still, not even close to Neil Young. Especially since I just heard him perform this song in November, when it just about took my breath away. So Mike Mogis produced this, eh? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
