    LOVE SAD. The coolest thing ever was in Philly when they played Sad and Alone, consecutively


    Agreed, BTW it hasnt been played since then ('05) in Philly. 3 years is just too long for me ;)

    Err, both songs have been played since then...

    I've loved it the first time I heard it on Lost Dogs.

    I too heard it in Chicago - but did anyone else notice this .... Eddie changed the lyrics to the point of view from a girl rather than a guy. For example, instead of "11 nights he layed in bed" I believe it was "11 nights she layed in bed," etc.

    He messed up a couple of times (which happens), but for the most part, he changed the gender, which I thought was interesting.

    Probably not on Binarual because its very similar lyrically to Parting Ways, also it doesnt really fit in the album.

    Wow, it seems to have Binaural written all over it. The theme, the sound, guitar tones, arrangement. Would have been perfect on Binaural.

    To have Greivance and Sad on the same record would be more than I could wish for. Two classic Ed tunes. It would be like Porch and RVM on the same record.

    Definitely one of Ed's best compositions. I remember the leak from around 2003. Actually listened to it on the way to Boston III and Hershey and the version of Sad and Education from that leak were just a little bit better than what came out on Lost Dogs. That guitar slide from Mike when they flip the song around is amazing and it was even more pronounced on the leak.

    Glad to see Sad played so much. Great version in San Fran 2006 indeed.
