VVHM George, Awaiting On You All. Anyone else think this sounds like it was recorded in an airplane hangar?

Man, totally.  And thanks, Mike, for alluding to my favorite GH lyric (which George, whether modestly or cowardly, undid in the ATMP reissue liner notes several years ago): "While the Pope owns 51% of General Motors / And the stock exchange is the only thing he's qualified to quote us."  That couplet is seven layers of genius cake for me.

OMG/TANC: I had the song in my head all day after hearing it Wed morning; I was thisclose to quoting that line in my Facebook status this morning, but the Adam Lambert story became more topical and so George got bumped. But obviously I love that line a LOT.

Mmmmm.... 7 layers of genius cake...


that's a great lyric!  great song!

here's George performing this in the Concert for bangladesh movie:
