Hmm. I guess I'm not a Husker Du superfan cause I don't get the nod (all over Bob Mould's solo stuff but that's another thing).
Regardless, lovely piece.
Great songwriting, just a terrific use of a phrase that baseball-fan newspaper-reading kids like me used to see. As one sportscaster once said... "He's listed as day-to-day... Well, aren't we all?"
Great song, soft rock,,, your guitar playing is very fine,,,question is there a drop out about 2 min into the piece,, could just be my speakers,, their not very good...nice work

When I sent this song off to Jim, he sent back tracks for a second rhythm guitar, lead guitar, and drums. Bass soon followed, and Kavin's slide dropped in nicely. Just thought I'd let y'all have a listen to what came back to me…
No im not happy and no im not sad, no im not good but i know im not bad. No i wont go there, but no i wont stay, no im not straight but no im not gay, no need to tell me i know im not right, no happy endings and no end in sight. I got no way of…
What a nice surprise to hear this morning! Something fun and different from Alex. Excellent work.
+1 for the Poi Dog meets Dylan comment. That's pretty spot on. = )
Oh hai. This is Bryce!
I have a cold today, but on the brightside I conjured up a song!
Yes :3 I do realize the vocals are a tad quiet; I apologize for this! The next song will be better. I promise you that.

My first RPM cover of 2011. This one is "Like This" by The Missed Connections. I seem to have taken a darker turn with the song than Amelia did. It wasn't intentional, but it seems to be what I do when I cover her songs.
@Mischief - are you referring to the backing vox? That's all me. 2 guitars, bass, Addictive Drums, and 4-5 voices.
I assume "steezy" is something good. = )

Shades of my psychedelic past. Cool!
Beautiful playing!
yeah yeah yeah!! Awesome guitar solo! Love the sound and tone. Really cool song!
Nice one!

Good tune, like the guitar work.
excellent track.
excellent acoustic sound...sweet vocals - bg vocal works wonderfully.
cool groove...cool vocal approach...really love this!
I'm just back to add this to my RPM Faves Playlist this song is perfect.
My boss thinks he's a donkey jockey. He's always riding my . . . ahem, this is a family site. Sorry. Nice song, though. ER
And a man doesn't just cook, he barbecues! He's a gourmet, right? ER
Great guitar, your voice matches up well with the music, carnival ending is nice
Great song, soft rock,,, your guitar playing is very fine,,,question is there a drop out about 2 min into the piece,, could just be my speakers,, their not very good...nice work

This is very FNG!!!

Alex hit it out of the park on this one, taking a great song and making it even better.
I love the push-pull of this song.
Damn, Andy. Just damn. You're operating on a whole different level, as usual.
There's something to be said for embracing the nonsense. Too many musicians takes themselves far too seriously. Great work.
This is radio-ready, and better than 99% of what you hear out of signed bands. Seriously.... I should give up after hearing this. Just brilliant.
These new songs are really strong. Keep it up!
Most excellent work, my friend! I love the 60's vibe.
Excellent work, gentlemen.
This is just brilliant, Brian. A nifty little acoustic gem hidden amongst your louder songs.
This song brought the house down at the RPM listening party in Portsmouth. Radio ready. Not sort of. Ready now.
The knee-bucking harmony leads into a Spiders From Mars-style glam riff? So good, it's practically unfair.
GF channels Cheap Trick and sets the Alonetone power pop bar just a wee bit higher for the rest of us.
You out-did me on the new wave vibe. Awesome job!

This is a tremendous song. It reminds me of The Cure circa 1986. I do wish the vocals were a bit more prevelant, though.
A really great live version of one of my favorites from Sunny, sorta...
Has anyone ever told you that you sound like Robyn Hitchcock? Cool stuff!

Holy crap, Clarke! You've been hiding a gem like this from me! Great 80's vibe.
Hah! What a fabulous song to start my day with! Great work, Colin.
