Thank you Calliope No. 8, for letting me share this song!
I always thought Live's album Secret Samadhi got a bit of a bum rap. After Mental Jewelery and the radio play of chart-toppers from Throwing Copper, I know a lot of folks that felt very let-down by Samadhi (although not as much as by Bush's Razorblade Suitcase after their hit Sixteen Stone). But if you give it a chance, there are actually some really interesting/catchy songs on the album. Here's one of my favorites…
I totally agree about SS. I was lucky enough (well in a way) to have been engaged for a year to Chad (one of the band members) cousin. We were able to go to all their concerts and then backstage to hang out with the bands. I was not only able to meet the members of Live… but also of Blind Melon, Weazer, and some others ones that I can't remember the names of. Right after I met Blind Melon is when the front man died. Those were some crazy and fun days. So now, whenever I hear an old Live song on the radio… it totally transports me back to then and hearing all the stories behind the songs from the band themselves. They were/are so talented. I hate that they have lost their luster over the years with the addition of family/kids.
