How could this song not be here already?! I thought there was a thread for it?! it is time we bring this beautiful song out here to this forum!! It has NOT been discussed about it since I think 2003, would you believe?! I don't know if it was me or someone else who did a thread about this song, but we SO need it now.

I decided this will be my last post for tonight, and leave you w/this song, written by the duck man himself, Mr. STONE CARPENTER GOSSARD!! :cool:

This song reminds me of a friend of mine, which I know those lyrics ring true to him, to me at least:)

~NO WAY~

here's a token of my open-ness
of my need to not disappear
how i'm feeling, so revealing to me
i found my mind too clear
i just need someone to be there for.. me
i just want someone to be there for.. me
all the static in my attic-a
shoots down my sciatic nerve
to the ocean of my platitudes
longitudes, latitudes, it's so absurd
i just need someone to be there for..
i just want someone to be there for..
someone to be there for me
'cause i'll stop trying to make a difference
i'm not trying to make a difference
i'll stop trying to make a difference
no way
'cause i'll stop trying to make a difference
i'm not trying to make a difference
i'll stop trying to make a difference
no way
ooh, let's call in an angel
ooh, let's call in an angel
ooh, let's call in an angel
'cause i'll stop trying to make a difference
i'm not trying to make a difference
i'll stop trying to make a difference
no way
'cause i'll stop trying to make a difference
i'm not trying to make a difference
i'll stop trying to make a difference
no way, no way
let's call in an angel
who's calling an angel?

    No Way is great, but I have a feeling they don't play it as it seemed more like a spontaneous song that for some odd reason was good enough to put on the albumn, something that they may have done in one sitting and then that was that. An Aye davanita deal, maybe? Anyway, I would love to hear it live, but I don't see it happening. It has a great groove to it, a good back and forth pull.

    yeah, you´re right!
    i hurt myself today,
    to see if i still feel,
    i focus all the pain,
    the only thing that´s real...

    no way, this song is inspiration in a bottle.. perhaps even a bottle of booze!

    I was making a CD of some of my favorite PJ songs yesterday (for my son's gf-we went to the Cincy show together)-this song was on it-love everything about it.

    someone told me that PJ has only really played this song like 3 times in existance which I can't believe. I mean they'll play the shit out of Even Flow but they can't put that song aside and practice this one...

    3 times only :(

    Like the sign said: "YES WAY TO NO WAY"
    They could easily solve this problem by playing Yield in its entirety :D
