Blackbirds - Erin McKeown
Posted 9 years ago by Nerubo:
As is often the case here, the comments would lead you to believe about half the people hate this song, but the ratings do not reflect it.

I'm apparently in the minority in that if I don't like a song, I (almost always) just don't comment on it, and don't rate it if I'm "meh" about it.

I do comment on songs I like. This is one of them. My 10 cents: (inflation don't you know?) A catchy number I never mind hearing.

Anyone know who is on guitar on this song? Pretty impressive guitar jamming going on.

The first song I've heard by her here on RP - but I've been a fan for a few years. She's great live also - check her out if you have a chance.

Just tried reporting four and twenty blackbirds to eBird. It was rejected.

Cool. And she's cute in a non-People magazine kind of way.

Wow! This discussion is really polarized! You can definately put me in the "like it" group. Great feel, terrific voice, nice tempo after a slow afternoon.
Are you ever right about this! I've found myself really digging it. And after listening some more I liked it more. I'm glad I got to hear it. Rp is the epitome of eclectic and I'm glad it's here for us. Keep it coming.

Just a kiss in the morning, no guarantees. How come I never met a woman like that in my life? (sigh)

Sexy, sassy, fun, and a great sound. 8 from a newly-infatuated Nottingham jury.
