Some people get a cheap laugh breaking up the speed limit
Scaring the pedestrians for a minute
Crossing up progress driving on the grass
Leaving just enough room to pass

    Guitar sound so sharp you could cut it with a knife. Green, fresh and sharp as an apple ... quite wonderful.

    They put just a little too much keyboards on the Alchemy version. That keyboard intro still sounds unnecessary to me.

    ein geniales - viel zu unterbewertetes - Stück! Ich mag besonders diese Wahnsinns-baseline! Oh yeah: once upon a time in the west :-)

    Yeah, good as the studio version is, the live version on Alchemy is even better. Great track.

    sounds exactly like Dylan's 'When You Gonna Wake Up', 'cept without the brass section.
