    A beautiful take down of trump.  
    You (and especially Eddie) need to grow up and stop the Trump bashing, you're embarrassing yourselves. The president has a 60% approval rating for his handling of the coronavirus crisis. He wisely decided to enact a travel ban for people arriving from China VERY EARLY ON (Jan. 31 to be exact). He was branded a racist and xenophobe by the media and fools like Bernie and Biden. ALL experts NOW agree that Trump's bold decision gave the U.S. a head start in containing the virus and has saved countless Americans from contracting the virus, many of whom would be dead now. Besides, Trump WILL be President for 4 more years and 8 months so you might as well make the best of it - it's your life...
    yeah, everything is working out great! Trump is a genius, he knows more than the doctors, the generals, he is perfect in every way, no one knows more than Trump, he only speaks the truth, everyone is lying except Trump, he will save everyone from cancer causing by windmills, and be the one true savior of humanity on earth,  oh yeah, he is just a con man and bull shit artist.  Right on Eddie!!! LOVE SEVEN O' CLOCK!!

    I admit that I didn't get this song at first, saw the comments and I couldn't understand what I was not hearing.

    Out walking the dog yesterday after work and it just hit me like a wave of light. In fact the whole album did.

    A stunning piece of work. How lucky are we to live in a time where people can put out something like this after so much time, in a musical age where all roads lead to banality.

    This is hilarious, unless it’s meant to be serious which in that case it’s very very sad

    This is pure MAGA bullshit. It is our lives. Hard to "make the best of it" when the charts show that U.S. has done the worst job of any country in containing the virus.

    I like Seven O'clock too.

    Seven O’Clock is a musical masterpiece.  It may be politically charged but these beautiful lyrics can be applied to more than left vs right.  A lot of positive messages to be taken from this gem.   OUx.gif

    While the Admin was trying to deal with this, fiddling Peloso was,  and still is, pushing impeachment....who was asleep at the wheel?  Imagine the worst crisis is at our doorstep and all half the goverment cares about is impeaching you...that really helps the idea they gave a shit at all about anything but their agenda

    Pritzker in Illinois. INVOKE WAR POWERS.  So he does it and now he's a facist for denying Canada and SA their equipment, he is starting a bidding war and tit for tat retaliatory world....just stop bitching about him already it is counter productive, tired, boring...enough hand wringing 

    I love the song

    Is it ok to still talk about the song? 

    Ok don’t be too harsh but does it remind anyone of Let me sleep? 
    A much faster and word filled version? 

    My favorite right now.  Great song.

    First time I heard that opening verse, I thought of this book and wondered if Eddie has read it.


    It's a hopeless situation...

    This is trying to have your cake and eat it too, but like a way dumber version.

    The admin was not trying to deal with this. Which is worth noting because the admin also wasn't trying to deal with impeachment--no witnesses, no testimony, remember?

    Also lol at the idea that pandemic response isn't the president's responsibility but the speaker's. This isn't Fox News buddy, you can't just find the highest ranking democrat and make them secretly behind everything.

    its music, music. Nothing more. It is MUSIC. KISS...that last "s" is silly. No one here or there deserves to be called stupid. 
    Be different & make a difference. Decency & kindness @ a grassroots level works.

    I was interested in that opening line about ‘down under’. Normally it’s an Australian reference...
    Melbourne #1 '98
    Melbourne #2 '03
    Melbourne #3 '03
    Melbourne #1 '06
    Melbourne #3 '06
    Melbourne '09
    Melbourne '14

    I know, right? He says both down under and mutant messages in that verse. Not sure if anyone else has read this book, but the themes of it fit this album to a "T".

    I haven't read the book but, intrigued, a google search immediately led me to reading that the Aborigines dispute the book's authenticity:

    My take on that line is that it is actually quite literal, Eddie was feeling depressed about the state of the US when a friend from Australia or New Zealand contacted him and it showed to him that just because the US is struggling there are places where dreams are still being made. That allowed him to move on from his despondency and get on with his day!

    D88 I did not make my point clearly enough. BOTH parties sat on this and underestimated it.  Dems/Repubs.   It isn't about blaming a party, it should be about blaming our US Gov, who had their eyes on agendas not our safety. Yes TRUMP is the voice,  but  party leaders being distracted by neverending impeachment notions clearly distracted them as well as tying up both parties who should have been focused on Covid 19, not lets find another way to waste time and money trying to get rid of Donald.  

    Maybe people can refrain from taking things personally and have a mature discussion.  It is okay to disagree without comparisons, and blanket statements.
