So, what's wrong with birkenstocks and gingham?  Comfortable, versatile, and just plain fun.  A lot like Grant-Lee Phillips, except that he's got a lot more to offer than just comfort.... Love this song. {#Sunny}

Transition or blatant lift? {#Eyes}

There's an album called Quark, Strangeness and Charm but quarks are known to exist. You know I don't think there are, but I think there are some that would make some good album/band names. The Sleptons has a nice ring to it.

I don't know this album, but I have all of Grant Lee Buffalo releases, and 2 or 3 of his solo work - not a bad album in the bunch.

I've always looked on cynicism as a positive attribute. Used in moderation of course.

Great song.  Thought it was Bruce Springsteen, but that is probably why Bill decided to play it after a Bruce song!
GLP is a national treasure. More songs from his 'Nineteeneighties' album please!!!

Grant Lee Phillips was one of my more pleasant music "discoveries" of last year. I knew about him and had heard all the RP songs, but decided to delve into his catalogue a bit. Great stuff.

Can't understand those who can't understand the positive comments on this song. It's quite nice.

  Is this Country? I thought it was jus a nice little Pop song.  

 
I don't know if it's a "nice" anything, but no, it ain't country, neither.

+1 —- reminds me of a lot of different artists in the genre described above.  I hear a little Wallflowers in there too ;)

This is working for me. horstman said it right: A well crafted song.

I love GLP, his music sounds old and familiar and new and freash all at the same time.
My brain immediately said "Josh Rouse". So I learned something today!
Such a great talent. Not his best song, but still pretty good.

7:05 am - Grant-Lee Phillips - Fountain Of Youth 7:01 am - Tom Petty - Learning To Fly 6:55 am - Jeff Tweedy - Sunken Treasure 6:51 am - Béla Fleck - New South Africa 6:44 am - Sting - They Dance Alone (Cueca Solo) Is there a better station on the planet? I havent found it.
yes, play this more please!
I find such comfort in his voice.
I like it... yeah I really like it.. very pleasant. I gave it an 8.

I'm thinking very, very early Collective Soul, as in Allegations and all things left unsaid. But I hear the other comparisons as well. Still, a well crafted song.
Grant-Lee Phillips - Fountain Of Youth Tom Petty - Learning To Fly Jeff Tweedy - Sunken Treasure Béla Fleck - New South Africa What a great radio station!
When I heard this the other day, I thought that Bruce Springsteen might have decided to improve for the first time since 1970-whatever and record a good song. Hear the Jacob Dylan there too ... more clearly than Springsteen. It doesn't sound much like Grant-Lee Phillips to me. Despite that, I like it. EDIT: I see some others heard BS in there as well.
I like it. Yessir. I do. I like it.
Anybody hear Jacob Dylan?
This album's nice and pleasant enough, but I don't know what happened to the mind-blowingly-great Grant-Lee we heard on his "Mobilize" album. Sounds like he's stretching after a long nap.
Hard to believe this is the same guy that did all that phenomenal pseudo-glam music for "Velvet Goldmine". I LOVE that stuff. This... not so much. Just seems sleepy.

I... I think I like this. I think I have a new found liking of "country twang" I guess it is called. More of this and more of Wilco. Hey how bout some Willie or even a little Dwight? Go RP!
Kind of reminds me of Springsteens early stuff, or possibly something you would find on his Tracks CD's...

I'm diggin' the stuff I hear from this album.
"You've got a lot of nerve. . . . "
Second first playing from this album today. This is marginally better than the previous track, but still fairly... mundane or bland. Can't decide which.
Pleasant vocals. Pleasant instrumentation. Like it.
