Someone before me laid down these rails
When it's loaded up too heavy,
this engine fails
In lovetown
I can't settle down
And do those teeth still match the wound
Take a good look around
In lovetown
Aaahha, aaahha
Looking in lovetown
Aaahha, aaahha
This is lovetown
Sometimes you're stormy water
on which I pour my oil
In each other's shadow
The roots reach into the soil
All these knots so tightly tied
We could not uncoil
In lovetown
No place to settle down
And do those teeth still match the wound
Take a good look around
In lovetown
Aaahha, aaahha
This is lovetown
Aaahha, aaahha
Looking in lovetown
Whose lonely lips will find these hidden scars?
Who's seen the kisses left in dimlit bars?
Who's out in the streets, looking for love like ours?
Who's looking in lovetown tonight?
Have you got what you want
Said have you got what you need
With what you did and what you saw
Did you find you needed more
Have you got what you came for
Are you really so sure
Are you really so sure
Looking in lovetown
In lovetown
Living in lovetown
Hey yeah yeah.
I can't think of a Peter Gabriel song that deserves less than an 8. When one of an artist's stinkers still deserves an 8, that says something about his talent, doesn't it? :-)
There is a song from the Gremlins soundtrack called Out Out that is definitely not an 8.
I always thought it was lime in the coconut.
What about the water in the coconut? 7 days?
What have you got against solar panels?
No denying the talent. I simply cannot take to his vocals. Irritating seems an inadequate description.
I don't know who produced this, but they needed their ears syringed. The vocals are far too prominent.
110 amps, huh? Those are some powerful speaker cabs on your island...

Too much 'howling down' on here already!! We're all different and different stuff floats our respective boats...
Never, ever, come across a station with SO MUCH variety. Ever!! What's more, when B&R play something I really don't like, they've even supplied a skip button.
What's not to love, huh?

I'm not gonna 'howl you down' one bit (sure...others might) in fact I'm more of a PC fan than PG, though the beats are usually top notch...I'm at a 7 on this one....Long Live RP!!

To be fair, we feel what we feel, but empty and hollow is the outstanding sound he goes for.
I know recording studios use the very best condenser microphones that money can buy so all I can assume is that this is either a poor quality upload or it is deliberate attempt by the producer and sound engineer to create this effect - like putting a piece of crispy rice paper over your mouth as you sing - only done at the mixing desk with some electronic vocal processor.
Does anybody else hear it?
LOL, either Brooklyn, Sauget, or Centerville, IL. They're all about the same. Way past those days, thankfully.
Once went to Boston's Combat Zone with two friends, one of whom insisted we go there to send him off into the Navy. If Gomorrah was as boring, sad and tacky as that area it'd be a wonder that sin and temptation are still with us today.

I once "hit the town" with an uncle I barely knew while visiting my grandparents. He took me to this town he called a "wonderland of filth". It's about an hour from St. Louis and to this day I have no idea where it is. It was basically a colony of strip clubs.

Was this the beginning of a life-long sexual objectification of women? This curious mind wants to know.
Sounds like an educational trip to me.

Simmer down there, Sloppy, the name of the song is "Lovetown".....

Love the voice, like the song, that too is irrefutable.
Precisely. I have no problem with you loving his voice and as in a Dylan song "Man, I expect the same."
On the Ashbory, methinks. Definitely something fretless, and something with more fundamental than the Stick. I have one of each, and while the Ashbory is a pain in the ass to play, there's no way you could pull this song off on the Stick.
How you pull this off, "Cowboy"? Fiddle, banjo and Ashbory...? Send me a tape!
Is that a "rainbow-statement"...?
Ditto
Ditto here too
no idea what it means, but damn it sounds sexy.

Bad to the bone- the bass bone....8.
So is his groove; when he hits it, you can't sit still.

Needs more giant hogweeds.
And cowbell.

Tony Levin is the ace of bass!
why don't you just go spank your monkey?
I'm not gay either but the groove is good.........
Just remember that this song is a "we-pay-you-to-write-song-and-edit-it-and-ask-you-to-change-it..." type deal. Not the same process for the artist. Very difficult thing to pull off it seems.
Or something about his fans, perhaps.
