makes the 2006 Atlantic Storm Names list. I hope she's gentle.
oh and, um, I like this song because it's got a nice beat that makes my head dance around on my shoulders.

Excellent song! It probably rocks the hardest out of anything Frank's done post-Pistolero.

| To me, Nadine is quite skippable. Song 7 rocks harder. |

The evolution of this song, as Brian and Dean have been showing on the podcasts, is fascinating. But I'm a little disappointed that Frank went with the version he did. The faster, piano-based version rocks a lot more than the Show Me Your Tears version.

The first few times I heard Nadine was on some live Bootlegs and they were the faster versions. I was quite surprised as well when I heard the studio version.
I think I still prefer the uptempo version. I agree with you coastline.

I prefer the album version.
I've worn it off a bit though after so many listenings, when I listen to SMYT I sometimes skip the first track. I'll go back to it eventually.

| It was lovely to hear the alternate versions. Love the piano led version; it'd be nice if it were to become available. |

| Nadine is great as is on SMYT. The buildup is strong and the line "maybe we'll park and I'll drive" is quite evocative. Definitely a keeper. |

i know how you feel coastline. I am not trying to nitpick (I know frank was upset about this recently). I love the album versions but personally i preferred the bootleg versions of don't clip your wings (incredible acoustic) and the shrimp song (although i know he wanted to change it to make is his). But fuck it, i love it all.
Anyway, I only am mentioning this so i have something to write beacuse i cant wait to see the man in Wisconsin! I gotta love him for scheduling that show.

| This song has been growing on me immensely. It just has "it." I think the album version is the best of the three I've heard since I think it has the right level of darkness/tone. It would be my favorite song on that album if Manitoba wasn't so perfect. |

Nadine grows and grows on me. I hit the obsessed stage a couple weeks ago, and can't get enough of that song. It's such a simple song, and I like what Frank said about it -- it's not a song about Nadine, exactly, but a song about her effect on him. At this point, I like the acoustic versions best. But any version is great, because it's designed to worm its way into your brain. There goes Na-dine-dine-dine-dine-dine-dine ...
And the last line is as dirty as anything he's sung since Cactus.
One of my top 3 Frank songs, for sure.

| Show me your tears is a killer album overall. I like that part where he sings wicked song after wicked song. And the stuff in between is alright too.. And that openner slays! |

SMYT may be one of his best albums. Despite what I said in that other thread.

| ok. nadine is the first song i downloaded and i did love it. i have 11 and 4 year old boys and a 9 year old girl and all of them like different songs. 11 year old loves Speedy Marie. 9 year old loves Here Comes Your Man. 4 year old is a head banger for sure, he loves loves loves Nadine.

My 4-year-old loves "The Creature Crawling," off the "Cult of Ray" album; and my 7-year-old loves "Monkey Gone to Heaven," the Pixies song. I love it when the kids get into Frank. Neither of my boys cares for "Nadine," though. I think they're sick of me playing it.

| my kids are used to radio music. you know they think they have to listen to whatever everyone else is listening to. I AM going to break them from the masses and covert them if it is the last thing i do. just call me superhero mom. ok i am retarded. Anyway they don't understand why it doesn't get played on the radio. |
