Song of the Moment: My Father's Son

[Birds in Hell]

I still think this is the strongest song on the last two albums by some margin.

[Thejambi]

Cranked it in the car today. It still fucking rocks.
Full boner sequence.

[TBAMTS]

I must not "get" this song.
Least favorite on the album.

[stip]

I must not "get" this song.
Least favorite on the album.

it's towards the bottom for me too, other than the bridge

[warehouse]

i love this one. i think since there's 2 basses it makes the awesome guitar lines stick out even more. ed's delivery is also pretty awesome.

"this gene pools drownin me"
"this gene pools dark and deep"

i love these lines

[Dr. Van Nostrand]

Im liking it quite a bit still, its a fun one to play loud in the car

[Jorge]

When I first heard the song I thought the opening line was "I come from a genie, yes".

[Habitman]

When I first heard the song I thought the opening line was "I come from a genie, yes".

as did I

[Strat]

What is the first line?

[Dr. Van Nostrand]

What is the first line?

Not sure, i still haven't read the lyrics

[Dr. Van Nostrand]

What is the first line?

Actually the book was closer then i realised, so the first line is "i come from a genius and i am my fathers son"

[Leatherhead]

This song kicks ass hard. Love it. Fuck, maybe mike should always play bass.

[Strat]

Yea, i like genie better

[Hatfield]

Ed really tears up thte 3rd verse. Man alive that is sexy.

It's really f^*-ing incredible, isn't it?! I can't believe they were able to write and record this song at this stage in their career. Jeff and Ed keep pushing each other further and further out.

I'm going to walk the dog and crank this to 11. Wish I had Pono

[Okonkwo]

This one benefited the most from switching to an HQ version from the iTunes stream.

[dkfan9]

the bridge is good, chud

[dkfan9]

I still think this is the strongest song on the last two albums by some margin.

i wouldn't say "by some margin," but otherwise i agree at present.

[BurtReynolds]

oh for the love of... why are you always like this?!

[Dr. Van Nostrand]

Yea, i like genie better

im pretty sure that is what Ed will change it to when he cant remember the lyrics

[Revelator]

This song has speeding ticket written all over it. Pretty sure it's going to overtake Yellow Moon very soon as my favorite track on the album. It's got the most attitude of anything they've put out post-2000.
