Re: Everyone's someone and with the [cardboard box]

Welcome back, Lisa.  'Cardboard Box' was spoiled a bit for me because I
first heard it on a wobbly tape and now when I hear it I think the guitars
don't sound right.  Great song, though.  Isn't it supposed to be about how
the government have a file on everybody and it's about all that stuff in 
the
file.  Or something.

Nobody talks much about Rough Music but I think it's great.  Who's with me?
I love 'A Map Below', which is as good as anything they've done.  Then
there's 'Detective Song' and 'Dark' for rocking out, 'James' for quiet
reflection and 'Secret Destination' for atmosphere.  It might not be quite
as good as Swagger or Beatsongs but I like it.

Case for the prosecution, anyone?
