Dude, I've had this record on repeat for like, two months.

Just can’t get enough. Funny thing is, I don’t think it’s their best record at all. But I can’t get enough of the damn thing. I must be right though. Cause I can burn out Mrs. Glam on a record in a week if I’m really into it, and she ain’t rolled her eyes at me yet (if you can’t tell, i’m kind of a music nazi. We generally listen to what Glam wants. I know I know. To quote Bubbles, “that’s a prick job”. I can’t help it.)

One of my favorites, if only because me n Mrs Glam never fail to air guitar at each other at “and these 16 strings were strummin” in the first verse.

The record is really good. Again, I don’t think it’s their best, but the standout tunes REALLY stand out.

He said it is a song about helping strangers and I believe some of the profits went to RAICES
Because of this I thought this was a perfect song he would do when performing at the Bernie rally but it was in Detroit and he stuck with his own songs including Connected by Love which also made sense.
