Great song, grating delivery.
Wait. What? An example of diametrical opposite opinions. Here on RP? OMG! Say it's not so! FWIW, I lean much more toward the first/former p.o.v.

Reminds me of when I last stepped on the cat's tail.
Wow - hearing this reminds me what an amazing album that was. Still so good.
"You don't always get what you want. But you get what you need!"
My ears hurt, please stop screaming lady.
BillG!!!
How dare you let this gem languish in the archives for almost 11 years!
She's so good I don't even know what to say. makes me want to get up, scream, and throw my f-ing computer against the wall.
No you don't - get * what * you * want...
But shit. Fight it out and make the best of it that you can and look for the beauty that's always there - like Patty Griffin's voice and songs.
Rock it.

I out grow alot of music ...but so far not Patty Griffin.
i agree. not one of my favs of her stuff, but i'm a huge fan nonetheless.
Go Patty Go! Great artist.
ohhhh those first 2 lines get me right ~here~
Just heard this again after a long while...gave it a 7 the first time...back for an upgrade = 9.
I'm a huge PG fan...and this one took a bit of a while to grow on me...
I'm there now.
Patty Griffin rules. I saw her open for Lucinda Williams a few years ago and immediately went out and bought Flaming Red. I think that's the only time I bought music based on a live performance. I think she's got one of the best voices around and she's an awesome songwriter.

Gotta agree. Ugh.
Love this song.
Excellent to hear a track from Living with Ghosts! Not my favorite, but it really captures the rawness of that album.
I'm real bimodal with Patty Griffin. Some of her stuff is just great, but some is ... Well, I really dislike this one.

Sweet Lorraine
When it starts, I always think it's goig to be an acoustic version of Leyla. What a let-down.
I don't usually like this genre, but wow, this is a really great song! I found myself singing along, even though it was the first time I'd heard it.
OMG -- shut up!!!!
My lowest rated PG song--a "4".
This is my favorite album of hers. I'd love to hear you play "Sweet Loraine" or "Every Little Bit."
Who am I kidding? I'd love to hear you play the whole album in one killer block.

One person's whining is another person's evocative plea. I feel the urgency here. Good art is meant to convey emotion. This does that.

"You first found me in my holding pen.
Stopped to take a look and stuck your finger in.
I bit one off and you came back again, and again."
Some of the best opening lines I've ever heard.
I said la di da di la di da di da...
I would say she sampled the riff...

This song would transition nicely into Siouxsie & The Banshees "Passengers." Same chords, strumming style. Love the Patty on RP....

Patty, one bob dylan is quite enough, thank you very much.
True - I want this awful song to go away!!!!

I should expect that from someone who gives Dr. Demento's "Fish Heads" a 10.

I am looking forward to hearing some Uriah Heap. Well just their one song, which sounds like every other song they recorded.

It makes me crazy in the craziest way! Love Patty ---- actually missed this song because I'm working to the copy of Silver Bell that Rylie burnt for me ----> PM me if you want this --- it's an outrageously good album, and Ryan put a ton of live stage/radio tracks on it too. Amazing stuff.

As opposed to what The Stones said...

WHY have I never heard of her? Awesome. Thanks RP!

I think every song from this album should be played. It's so awesome.
When she turns it up she really turns it up.
Among my favorite cuts from my favorite of Patty's albums.
Thanks to the RPeeps for adding some of her earlier work.
