Really like this set of lyrics. The sentiment is spot on.

Absolutely.

I took a drive with Earthling and it all finally clicked with me. I'm moving my 3 stars to 4 and it might climb to 5. The production is still an issue, but everything else is hitting really well.

I suggest each of you listen/watch the Zane interview, all the way through Andrew and Josh. Many of you have said it well, but something special happened for our guy and we are lucky it did.

Invincible hits me in my Don't You Forget About Me

My 11-year-old son and I were cranking this in the car yesterday. Try came on and he asked "Dad, do you think this sounds like an X song?"

Nice work

Just watched the Zane Lowe interview. My favorite part: Chad Smith banging the table saying "It should be fun!"

I was wondering the same

No!

That’s terribly sad and utterly unsurprising.

It also makes how life affirming Earthling is all the more poignant when you add Mark to the Seattle death toll

I'm really fucking sad about him and I didn't even know much of his music

he was SOOOO good - amazingly prolific so there are some dud but when he was on few were better.

Check out Bubble Gum, Blues Funeral, Field Songs, or Whisky for the Holy Ghost

Or Sweet Oblivion or Dust from the Trees

I was listening to "Nearly Lost You" earlier, I remembered that

Blues Funeral is the one that got me.

Ditto. There are a handful of songs on that album that I adore.
