I've seen them play live 3 times and every time I saw them they got worse and worse until 09 when I saw them last and I seriously wanted my money back. They fired that chick on the flute and have an electric guitar now and stuff and they really blow. Their newer originals are garbage. I'm never going back to see them again. This song is cool though but that weirdo singing pisses me off anymore.
@lalalaalydia Take away your paper & pen Stacks of money and your foolish grin And go Get me off the backwards ride Take away your greedy way and go See the woman standing at the door World gone by ... Again and again See the blisters growing on your feet Pushed on... Pushed on World gone by..... Here you go :)

I wouldn’t want to be Living in a world of ecstasy with you Wasted arms; wasted legs Wrapped round this machine Military machine I wouldn’t want to be Living in a world of ecstasy with you Taken’ away your companies Takin’ away your societies and go. Get me off this backwards ride, Takin’ away your ficticious books of fact. Yeah, do mum-ba-si-be-ah
my reaction to this video the whole way through was honestly "what in the world??" and yet at the same time i really like it. Discovering a new band: just one of many benefits of having an open mind. more ppl need to learn that for youtube and life in general.
@Bustersword6piece haha definitely...whats funny is im black and when my friends come around they are all like WTF are you listening to! Real Music here
I just finished watching 'Send Me On My Way' and I assumed Ecstasy or Acid had something to do with em..This kind of ties it all together ha - no hate on the group though, they're really good :)
@changeluhia All music, at this point, is a rip-off or a riff off of something else. Rusted Root is very similar to a lot of Talking Heads, and David Byrne solo stuff. Like you said, doesn't make it bad.
I believe the sun flower was an artistic prop to carry the viewer down to the "under world" or earth tribe. The flower stays in line with circle symbolism, and thus the circle of life and reincarnation ... universal connections .. ..
obviously, none of you were around for their easter weekend concert at UPJ in 95....cuz if uwere....u would know they KICK ASS!!!! go watch spongebob you 80's born know it alls!!!!
