Going to radio next week says Billboard. I have not heard this one. I liked The Underdog enough when it was played.

will almost guarantee this does not play on active or alt but AAA most likely.

(I think) their last two singles charted on Modern. Their Don't You Ever cover may have made it, too. Although I didn't hear that so much.

This was the band I was talking about. The last two singles did chart on Modern. I did not know about their Christian stuff.

NPR.org has the entire new album streaming. If you can get past the degraded audio, you'll find a nice indie classic in waiting.

Back to old Spoon. Very nice. This may be their highest charting Alternative song. It sounds like a winner.

This song kind of seems average to me. I prefer almost everything else I've heard by them. If I got to hear the Gax5 stuff more often it would've made more of an impression at the time, as I even charted "I Turn My Camera On" at the time.

If I got to hear the Gax5 stuff more often it would've made more of an impression at the time. Agreed. My Active-leaning Alt station never touched "The Underdog," except maybe a couple of times in a specialty block. But I grew to like that song more and more every time I heard it. I don't think Spoon is really meant to be a band I ever love, though. A good friend of mine considers the new album the best album he's heard in the last 10 years, which I take with a huge grain of salt, knowing him. Especially since I can't even remember a thing about this song after hearing it 4-5 times now. |
