“What a song, and what a story. You can't beat the upbeat nature of the song vs the macabre black humor of the lyrics. Edgy and sharp and oh so well done. I love this band.”

“If Dylan did a song about heroin, this would be it. Dark and mystical and terrifyingly grim, with a twist of religious philosophy thrown in at the end. Of course, if Dylan DID sing a song about heroin and I don't know about then I now look un-musicista. Oh well :)”

“This group loves to channel Bob Dylan and Tom Petty. They're like a bizarre love child. Decent texture to their music and really a rockin' little band. It was a pleasure to download this song and give it a twirl. I've downloaded a few of their other songs -- and so far, they don't disappoint. Fun listening!”

“How can you not rec a song with a name like this? Not exactly blues, more acoustic-folky-roots, but it's still a great name. Fantastic lyrics, this is poetry.”

“Just going to quote from this song: "I've heard the waitress from the coffee shop / At the edge of the universe / Tricks rich men into being slaves ... She speaks freely in a parlor /
cuts her absinthe down with dirt /
she says someday son you'll meet up / with
all those you have hurt" Enough said.”
