Anyone know the connection between Peter Gabriel's "I Grieve" and this track? Jo is often preceded by I Grieve. On RP, there's usually a reason, but it eludes me. 

It's especially poignant for me because I lost my wife to cancer a few years ago, and I Grieve generally rips my heart out. My wife's name was Jo, so.....

When this song starts and I hear the first two notes, I pause, smile, and continue on with whatever I was doing. With a smile on my face.

Another example of why RP is so freaking awesome.

Ok, this track has made me seriously re-evaluate my "I'm not into Chopin" stance.

I like this song when it starts, but at about 3:08 I find myself skipping to the next song.  I'm glad he found his second wind and all, but enough already.

I came here knowing I'd see this song rated really low. I understand why... yet I actually like it!

It is amazing how this song can bring such an emotional response to me each time I hear it.  My wife and I were huge Six Feet Under fans and the finale was really emotional for us both.  What a series.  Thanks to Bill for mentioning it on RP.  Many of the good things I've discovered lately have come from RP!  Keep up the good work, Bill!
 

Today this song was followed by "I Grieve" by Peter Gabriel. I doubt that's a coincidence.

I was just telling a friend about the wonders of Radio Paradise and the eclectic playlists when this track came on right after The Doors. Where else can you find such awesome segues?

Why do I always get a vision of a face in goulash when I hear this song?

I once worked in an office that piped in music (HORRORS!) and they regularly played a muzakified version of this. It took a while for those first few notes not to send me running and to return this song to masterpiece status in my mind.

The first few times I heard this, I had to double check that my squeeze players were in sync in the various rooms. When they're not in sync, you get that echo effect which works on this song, but is annoying when not intentional.

I appreciate the musicianship and fast fingers, but I still wish it would just end.

This starts out as a 7 or 8 for me.   After 2 minutes it quickly drops points.   By the end, I'm rating it a 2 or 3 — except I never get to the end because of PSD.

Strange tune. You could use this as the title music to a weird TV show about an FBI investigation of a teenage murder in a small logging town in Washington. Dual Peaks, summat like that anyway.

 
Oh, I don't think a plot like that would ever work, at least not in the U.S.   Well, maybe if you added a lady who clutched a piece of firewood like a baby..    Then maybe throw in a woman obsessed with silent drape runners, the show might have a chance.   I'm still skeptical.

Am I the only one hearing Youngbloods and Escape Club at the same time? 192 mp3 stream.
 
No, you are not.   I thought it was a bad mash-up of sorts, but I heard Bill back-announcing during the music, too.  Ooops.

Yup.   Very very few tracks make me switch off RP, but this is definitely one.

The segue from Chopin's Nocturne No. 1 into this song gave me goosebumps.
