Will there be an album version without this song? For his sake, I hope it is the worst song.
I'm a fan since I saw him 33 years ago, but listening to this song is like drinking vegetable oil.

If only everyone I ever spoke with about music lived by this creed. I'm proud of being the music snob that I am, but I always try to remember that my snobbiness is subjective.
Ps. Sheryl or not, I did actually listen and I agree with Tig, this song is not for me.

Not my cup of tea. I try to give everything a fair shot. But Sheryl Crow is someones music that has never had any appeal to me in any form. I really hope that this is just the radio friendly cut on the CD. It would be a shame to have to wait another 5 years for Clapton to make a guitar oriantated album. He is a guitarist first and foremost. Not my words his. It dosen't have to be blues or rock. A new musical direction can be a great thing. Can be.
It's very dependent on your state of mind. And your emotional state as well. And a lot of it comes pouring out, you don't really have that much control with it.
