In this old house, I'm not alone
In a bedroom, a telephone
You made the call and I just stood by
I stripped the sheets and emptied out the sty

And the crowds, they light the carnival
Calling us, calling us
And all they want, another voice
To lead us on, lead us on, lead us on

Even wasting the time with you
Doesn't matter if I think it through
You took the car around the bend
And ran it in the ground, let's pretend

And the crowds, they light the carnival
Calling us, calling us
And all we ask, another voice
To lead us on, lead us on, lead us on

I can't get out of what I'm into with you
I can't get out of what I'm into with you
I can't get out of what I'm into with you
I can't get out of what I'm into with you

Wow.  Well apparently I offended Scott_Alic. Very sorry, didn't mean to hurt your feelings. I apologize. Please forgive.

And another song I need to hear more because I don't know what to think about it... Not sure I like it, but then, it depends what was just before, the mood... Wait and listen

"In this old house I'm not alone" - keep on singing like that, mate, and you'll be in a crowd of 1 {#Sleep}

I am getting an Indian vibe (feathers, not dots) from this.  Very interesting.  HA! Bill just said it was an "indie" band.

 
You are a douche.

I can't believe I only just heard this song here, now.

Haven't really like a lot of GB's stuff I've heard here, but I like this one.

Listening to this last night, I was trying to figure out who he sounded like—more in phrasing than in actual vocal sound. Then it hit me. Harry Nilsson! No?

This is like circus music. Good circus music. Bring on the dancing bears...er, Grizzlies.

As for this song, I really haven't heard it enough to tell you what I think of it. So far, it hasn't made an impression on me either way. I'll let you know when it does, though, ok? Is that a deal? {#Wink}
 
{#High-five} Agreed!

I enjoy this song a little bit more every time I hear it. Not bad.

I'm seeing them in late September; looking forward to hearing what they do live . . .

OK P_J_B

I was always told not to poke a Grizzly Bear with a short stick  - so from the comfort of my distant office in one of the notches in the bible belt I'll just say it was not as Grizzly as I thought it would be.....

Only 26 ratings and this song has been playing for weeks! Come on people, get off the fence and rate the song, either you like it or you don't. If you change your mind, you can always change your rating later. Add a comment too, it's not hard. I'm sick of reading my comments, god knows I make enough. We need some fresh view points on the comment boards, and there must be hundreds( if not thousands ) of silent lurkers out there. Join the fun! {#Laughing}
 

{#Lol}

I have never heard of someone here lamenting the LACK of commentary on songs! That's a new one!

Just a suggestion: if you are sick of reading your own comments, then don't post them! {#Wink}

BTW, I usually don't rate or comment on a song unless:

1. I have an opinion on it; and
2. I feel that I can add something new to the discussion.

That being said, sometimes I just throw a comment in there for the heck of it. Either way, I no longer take this place or the comments expressed here all that seriously. Lighten up spuds!

OK, Mr Bond...
 

IMHO, At first blush it is a bit rambling and self indulgent. Although self indulgence is not necessarily a bad thing. Anyway, the tune seems to hold the potential to get interesting after a few listens. One of those songs seems like I'm going to like it later. Perhaps you know of what I speak.

I've heard several songs from this that I like.  this is pretty cool I think.  Their songs haven't blown my mind (yet) but often get my attention. They're really growing on me

I think I admire the amount of control they all posses. Kudos to the producer too.

Fresh twist on a "new spin?" What would you call it?
