Where were we
Fearless and only ever scared of me
Peerless and tearless

That was me
Cold as ice
On my knees
Every night
Snow white

Where were you
When all the doors were closing
You forced me to
Of all of us it's you who chose
It's you who chose

Not me
Cold as ice
On my knees
Every night
Snow white

Where were we
When I was fearless and only ever scared of me
Peerless and tearless

Where am I
Still trying to find the light
That burns the northern sky
A rarer borealis

Born to be
Made of lights
On my knees every night
Snow bright

Yeh thats me
Cold as ice
On my knees
Every night
Snow white

Born to be
Made of lights
On my knees every night
Snow bright

This song is like an Echo and the Bunnymen song but with no cunning edge.

I think this song rocks... I've also known my share of those who've gone down on their knees nightly to court the wicked Snow White I think he speaks of herein...

This song has a 'Bedbugs and Ballyhoo' vibe to it.

Vocals are very Bono-ish. (zooropa era)

Can hear a lot of influence that Muse has probably fed on.  I'm all for that love this band and Muse is a great benefit of this sound too.

It's possible the singer of Echo is the dad of the singer from Starsailor.

He's just old enough.

I don't know why your comment was removed. Maybe too much swearing and too many emoticons, Apache? Criticism is allowed. Some of your other song comments are proof of that.

Just so we understand your methodology, do you rate songs based on how good you think they are on a scale from 1-10 or how much you do or don't want them played on RP? Do you really think Radiohead's "Street Spirit" is a 1? Or the Beatles' "Let It Be?"
I never rate based on `quality'. I rate on how much I like or dislike the song, which is probably equal to how much I would like to (not) hear it being played on RP (or any other station). My rates are an honoust reflection of my taste, at least at the moment I rate the song when I hear it. The song that preceded the song being rated might influence my rating when I percieve the current song as a (anti)climax to the song before. Synth80s wrote:

As you say, to each their own. Luckily RP still plays more than enough of the `good' stuff, so I think I'll be around some more. I've also just browsed through my most recent song comments, and I think I'm pretty much in balance on my possitive and negative comments too. Even though I must admid that ranting on bad songs is so much easier than giving possitive comments with a meaning to something you like. It proves much harder to say why I do not like something than it is to tell why I do like something.

So? If I dislike the Beatles, mostly because they are the most overplayed band, does that rate me? honestly, what does someone's taste, and therefor their rating, cause to rate a person? You don't know me (and maybe you don't want to know me), but that has nothing to do with taste. My taste is well spread here on this radiostation: Low ratings: | 1 48 groups, 217 songs | 2 78 groups, 185 songs | 3 60 groups, 73 songs | 4 50 groups, 55 songs | 178 groups, 530 songs High ratings: | 5 33 groups, 33 songs | 6 44 groups, 46 songs | 7 138 groups, 165 songs | 8 208 groups, 283 songs | 9 110 groups, 197 songs | 10 26 groups, 70 songs | 419 groups, 794 songs Total: | 597 groups, 1324 songs Avarage rate: 5.6 Enjoy, Have FUN!

I find myself turning this up louder each time I hear it, which has been quite a bit on RP. It's an extremely "poppy" and radio friendly song, but that doesn't take away from the fact that it is pretty darn good!
