I'm not sure why, but there's a great relief that comes with saying that to me, this is the best song Frank Black has ever created. I'd never been able to say that up till now, because I never found 1 song to be so perfect. But I'm now 100% sure that this is my favorite. I think when that piano starts, every time I hear it, my heart wants to burst.

Anyone else love this track ? At almost 30, I listen to these albums now and find I relate to them much more then the days of slow slow slow FAAAAAAAAAST.

This music inspires me much more.

Not really, but Fastman/Raiderman has plenty of moments like this for me contained in other songs. Only last night was I cranking out 'Wanderlust'.

While I don't think I could say that I think it's actually the best song he's ever written, I too think it's fantastic and a stand-out. I love playing and singing it on guitar. The main hook where he sings the title of the song is absolutely wonderful. Hmmm....maybe subconsiously it is my favorite! :D

" amazes me someone could consider it a favourite FB song!"

It amazes me that such a personal choice could even be up for debate. Some people on here *hated* pistolero. At first that shocked me, but now I know just how different everyone on here is.

It's just a ripoff of Sexy Sadie.
I kinda like it though.

Uh... no. Karma Police might be another Sexy Sadie ripoff, but I don't like it.

Of course, Oasis rip their entire repetoire off The Beatles (and The Stones), so Radiohead and Frank don't exactly have a case to answer too!
