I don't mind, I don't mind the little things
But killing time killing time just kills me
Another day, what do you say
We got roads ahead

I don't know why, I don't know why we do this
We stick it in, we stick it in and do the rest
Another day, what do you say
We got roads ahead

Another day, what do you say
We got roads ahead

Sometimes I get willing,
Sometimes I feel sick
Your own ways make me feel so good
Turn again, turn again, we keep falling down
Once you with me to win, you with me to win
So we steer around

Another day, what do you say
We got roads ahead
Another day, what do you say
We got roads ahead.

i'm really digging big sugar.

the one that first reeled me in was "come a little closer" off this same album.
this one is pretty much up my alley, too.

idk if they're still playing live/touring, but i'd love to see that.

thanks, william, for introducing me to this band.
Not my taste!

When this song comes on, the off-key synthesizer (obviously intentional, but so what) makes me think that some minor alarm or cell phone is going off somewhere. Since that annoys me, rating is not difficult.
 
I went off hunting for the device that was making the noise.  Realised it was this shite track. Rating is easy  -   ZERO

It annoys me too. I can't help thinking that if it were not there then the song would forgettable but OK to listen to.
Love this song!

We've got Rhodes ahead.
there is always something good about almost every song; having a hard time finding something in this one. At first I will think "oh, the guitar work is nice" then they play something that is so discordant or the voice is good, until it isn't. Oh, well, I'll keep looking whenever it's played
Hurts me 2 ears so baaaaad...
That synthesizer track just rubbed me the wrong way.
Like the groove, but "Stick it in and do the rest" ?? c'mon.
why haven't i heard of them before? this is pretty great stuff.

Just heard him say they are from Toronto.... Incorrect. He is from Medicine Hat, Alberta Canada. They did a song about it called "All Hell for a basement" which is what Rudyard Kippling said when he heard about the town, as there are spots where the natural gas is coming up from the ground and can be lit with a lighter right on the ground...
My only music talent show, I lost to him with my band.... Obviously the judges were right. :)
 
No shame in that! (unless the girl with the dancing dog beat you, too)   :)
Nice!  Second song I've heard from them that caught my attention.  {#Guitarist}

Ha! That's cool.

I got into them in the mid '90's when "500 Pounds" came out. I was attracted to the retro muscle car packaging. I searched out their earlier discs and have picked up all the Grady stuff.

I think Big Sugar manages a nice Zeppelin swagger. I also enjoy their forays into dub.

Gordie has produced the last couple of Gov't Mule albums and Warren Haynes guests on this album.
