Something about this small little rocker has really caught me ear lately. I think this tune may have been wrongly labeled as a throwaway in the past. Sinclair's bass work is killer in the track, and Gord's voice sounds pristine.
I always thought that Use It Up should have been the In Violet Light opener, and now I definitely disagree with my old sentiment (I still however think The Lonely End Of The Rink should have opened World Container).
All that aside... does anybody else have some Are You Ready love?
One of my least favourite Hip tunes. Although calling it a 'tune' is a bit of an exaggeration.
I'm with you SRK, not much love from me either
That's not very appreciative. But I love it. "the devils in the blues smoke it to the stub' " is a personal favourite lyric and with the drums in the background makes it even better.
Yes, I have love for Are You Ready. It's pretty :thumb: in my books.
Great song, great album, now if only i could travel back in time to those days...when the albums were much more impressive...
My favourite Hip album. Great song too!
I don't care what anyone says -- this little ditty rocks my socks, especially live!!!
I like the song, but it always sounded to me like Rob's guitar was out of tune at the beginning. I know that must have been the sound they were going for, but its always bothered me.
:thumb: Always dug it. Cool JF drumming!!
I don't think I would mind this song if it didn't set the wrong tone as the opening track on IVL. Just doesn't fit with the album at all.
I searched youtube for a video of this song with no luck... anybody have one?
The rhythm section sounds great on that tune, but I'm still not a fan.
Some of you are way too picky. JUST EAT IT...ok?
