"The Only Place" is their pop CALFORNIA song. (I mention that for an LJ friend). Of course you know that already...
Um - Aimee Mann got her groove back after 2 decades w/ latest "Charmer". She has the same lyrical phrasing in almost all of her songs, it's funny. Kinda like Green Day - amazing they both went so far, but they are good artists otherwise. Green Day's latest, "Shoot the DJ," really sucks.
I thought Bob Dylan was the crappiest harmonica player of all time. I'm better than him, fcs. But GARY LOURIS is worse. He sings a bit better. He plays guitar better than sings. He's a very good SONGWRITER so he should just shut up. He apparently knows everyone in rock&roll however. That was the problem with Robbie Robinson too.
