Bob Burns: It's a really catchy song. I haven't analyzed it but after a few listens I believe the song is a bout nothing but a dream that makes no sense. thanks for the info. if you subscribe to the jungian school of thought (collective unconscious and all that), nothing means nothing. note to self: stop doing bong-hits before work g like a bird that flew, JF ___ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.

It's just a dream she keeps having and it doesn't seem to mean anything. Bob

Re: Summer Teeth?
John, I guess I should have mentioned that that's the hook from the song "Summer Teeth." It's a really catchy song. I haven't analyzed it but after a few listens I believe the song is a bout nothing but a dream that makes no sense. I'm probably wrong, being a songwriter myself, I know how lyrics can often be cryptic. I recommend the disk though. Keep On. Bob Burns http://www.biginiowa.com http://www.bluerose-records.com
Re: Summer Teeth
So they made a ragin full on glossy pop album, eh? Ok, so how fare the songs under Tweedy's increasingly raspy vocals, which would seem to these ears to defy glossy pop, at least the 70's kind David C refers to throughout his fine review. Or did Tweedy clear his throat finally? g By no means would I call it ragin' full-on glossy. It's still Wilco, still ragged, still loose, still throaty. They can only be so glossy and pop, no matter how hard they tried. One of favorite things about Tweety is that he always sounds as if he's either nearing sleep or just having woken up. Summer Teeth doesn't lose that. Combine that with pop hooks and some dark-ass lyrics and that's what makes it so damn interesting to me. Neal Weiss
RE: Summer Teeth
Sounds interesting enough to give a listen. And don't think I don't like pop, so even if it was real glossy, I could take it. Those Rasberries singles around my house weren't ignored while growing up. But tt is a *single* disc, isn't it?

"Raspberries singles"? The force is in you...come over to the dark side, Matt. g Heck, this buzz about "pop" Wilco on P2 and pop lists alike leads me expect a messy mishmash that's a little twangy, a little poppy and not enough of either. The combination worked only intermittently on BEING THERE, though it was better on AM, a record Tweedy seems to be distancing himself from at this point. b.s. n.p. Jim Roll

Rasberries, Badfinger, Jackson 5, and top 40 radio, all day, and as late into the night as we could get away with. And until our radio caught fire, but that's another story. I was born on the dark side, my friend.
Re: Summer Teeth
But tt is a *single* disc, isn't it? Yes, it's a single, albeit a loong single. Like 17 songs or something. Add that to the half of Mermaid Ave and a third of the last Golden Smog and it's no doubt that boy is prolific. NW
