one of the 3 billion versions of "Hallelujah". ZZZZZZZZ....

seriously, this set has been extremely low-energy.

Ditto, I find Hallelujah overrated and an extraordinarily snoozy ending to an already snoozy set.

been daydreaming/listening to set, and almost everything seems guitar heavy.  Not that there's anything wrong with guitar...

never has the phrase "we were doing time" seemed so appropriate.

Apparently the KFOG player mis-ID'd it as Mayall. Whoever was posting the list over on GS posted it that way at first too.

So I'm listening to the replay and Hallelujah is winding down, when at about 10:48 it is abruptly
cut off by a Neil Young song.  No back-sell...  This has happened two or three times in recent months.

Anyway, by the '90s I've stopped listening to a lot of radio or paying much attention to popular music,
so a lot of the stuff is actually new to me.  I like the STP song a lot, but I only hear it occasionally so
I don't consider it over-played, although it probably has been.  I also like the Des'ree tune, but it
seems to me I've heard it a lot in recent years -- perhaps on store muzak systems.  All the rest of
today's set was inoffensive and ultimately forgettable.

BTW, I will also defend The Shawshank Redemption as a very good movie and a successful
adaptation of a great King story.  Like any good movie, it shouldn't be viewed in eight-minute
segments interrupted by commercials.

I didn't see the movie until '96, when I was working as a contractor at a large, well-known
tech company in Santa Clara.  I've done a lot of work on IT contracts, and this place treated
us (and all their other many, many contractors) the worst of any place I've been.  It sucked.
I was looking for another position but I wasn't having a lot of luck and it was taking a while.
So I really related to being imprisoned in a hellish situation and sl-o-o-o-w-l-y chipping away
to make an escape.

A few defenses for these songs since they're from my college era.

- STP: at the time, the worst overplayed song was Plush. Interstate Love Song was a refreshing change and never got to the level of ubiquity of Plush, which wore out its welcome in a few weeks from hitting the radio.

- Live: I hate the song Lightning Crashes, but have you heard their previous album "Mental Jewelry"? It is much more raw/intense and strikes a weird balance between New Age-y aphorisms and existential questions. Try "Operation Spirit" and "Beauty of Gray".
