Fighter Fighter sounds like Josephine on speed - Tthip - 09-24-2004

After several listens, I cannot get it out of my head, I keep on expecting him to sing the lyrics to Josephine. To me it really sounds like a very sped up version of Josephine.

That's an interesting assessment, Dana. I can see (or should I say hear) where you're coming from on this one. I really like the tune. It's quite a shame that it wasn't inculded on the album. However, I would have to say that given a choice between Fighter, Fighter and Goodnight Josephine, I'd pick Joe. I fell in love with that song the first time I heard it. I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for Joe, Fighter, or You're Everywhere to be played in Philly.

I've heard it's like Joe on speed and I can't wait to hear it! I hope they play it in Clifton Park. I'm with Jenna hoping they play Everywhere and Joe too.

Josephine was the first thing that came to mind when I heard this for the first time. On the whole I think I like Josephine better (it just has that urgency) so although I'm glad I finally got to hear Fighter, I think Josephine was much better suited to the record!
