Goddamn what an opening line. Never picked up on that. Never bought the record, though.

Ukulele songs is really fantastic. Its unfortunate people wont even give it a try because of the Uke...

Oh, uh, well, ....

So I had a pretty retarded typo there, didn't I?

hell, even my wife didn't like that record, and she's an Ed fanboy! :haha:

the first 20-25 minutes of his Minneapolis show were definitely "beer/piss break"

Press play on the record.
Then go down further north a warmth alive and lingering.
And then do your best Scott Stapp impression.

Bingo

It's like that line was written by someone whose entire understanding of the vulvar area was based on seeing the Saarlac...and poor, poor Boba Fett.

Who died like an asshole.

No matter what anybody retcons.

I love this song.

I assume that was a Han Solo line cut from the film?

Or just Billy Dee chatting it up on set?

Listened once and I like it. Don't really understand all of the hate this was getting from people who heard it at a listening party.

decent. not the strongest on the album, but i kinda like what they did w/ the song. the guitars could have a little more twang, but it works as a full band song.
