[alexswystun]

how can someone dislike this??



[mikeotb]

His fans know what a great writer and performer he is. Heard they closed Walter Reed today and came right to this song.Great song among many of Michael Penn's stuff.

[AlabubbaTrucker]

I'm with "Lookingatcrap" on this. "Whis Midheal Penn not a huge star?"  The answer, of course, is because he's QUALITY. The World embraces garbage these days.

[1220iam]

don't know anything about HOUSE but I've loved this song since i first heard it. what a day to remember.

[YouA1ntSeenMyBallz]

Thumbs up if you heard this watching House M.D.

[M1gu3l0rd]

This song is fucking brilliant.

[zerolink77]

this song is really worth.

[wickirsinn]

Awesome...

[Aerolover16]

House is amazing!!!!!

[RichysBikeWorld]

Beautiful Song

[XXnaloXX]

anybody saw the ufo?

[shelski72]

@XXnaloXX yeah

[fonhoo]

nice music

[rblackraven]

Perhaps I'm showing my age. Michael Penn has always been a fave, since the early 90's/late 80's'

Hearing Walter Reed on House was such icing on the cake

[missyc13]

just saw the episode from house MD this song came in. that show has the best songs!

[4lecsandra]

what is exactrly the meaning of ' walter reed '. what's the sense in this song ?

[duongdoan1031]

@4lecsandra Dr Walter reed and a hospital named after him

[ElementaryPhysics]

@4lecsandra Walter Reed is an army medical center for the United State's veterans. Michael Penn based the album (With this song on it) off of a Vietnam veteran with bipolar disorder. This song is sung from the point of view of the veteran.

[metalheart4u9]

[PartizanFTW]

[killerofchicken]

not House..just Michael Penn

[barrooooz]

thanks :-) love this song

[CHARLOTTEandLISA]

song is so much better than video.

[lilleo1968]

Michael Penn doesn't seem to get radio play anymore. He deserves it.

[bobmarleyhotel]

God damned man, what a great song! Never heard it on the radio, what a shame!! This song is legendary!!

[DavySigfusson]

WHERE CAN I FIND THE FUCKING BASS TABS!?!?!?!?!?

... and, love this song btw. :Þ

[bambalamchouk]

@DavySigfusson

on google :)

[kemokllh]

refered by the House

[Lollocide]

I got refered by the House season: 3 and this song is awesome.

[SophieAmazing]

I want him to ask his brother to be in a music video of his... They could be in it together.

[marciabettany]

Michael Penn is an amazing songwriter/musician/singer. (and has a well known brother, who's an actor....take a guess?? name begins w.an S).

[SophieAmazing]

@marciabettany They look alike too!

[marciabettany]

@SophieAmazing Don't they, though? Yet, I asked it as a two part trivia question on FB, (1. who's Michael Penn's famous actor brother? 2. Who is Michael Penn married to - she's an amazing singer-songwriter! And more got #2 right! (Aimee Mann!) Once i Mentioned that it was Sean Penn, I got a some replies that said, "OH I Knew that!")

[ElementaryPhysics]

@marciabettany Aimee Mann is married to Elvis Costello, dude...

[marciabettany]

@ElementaryPhysics no Aimee Mann is married to Michael Penn. Alison Krause is Married to Elvis Costello.

[julikem]

@ElementaryPhysics wtf! well someone should tell Michael Penn, he's the genuine husband, though I'm sure many would appreciate being married to such a talented woman, there's so few of them out there.

[panzerkpf1]

OMG FLYING SAUCER AT 0:17

[tearsoflithium1]

[GuitarOfTheBlues]

[josiebabe169]

[Vanadane]

Best song from House...

[szprycol]

nice song ;D

[shelski72]

beautiful

[666Brainkillers]

This song... is my life :DDD

[shelski72]

@666Brainkillers i here you

[lookingatcrap]

why is michael penn not a huge star ?

[amishius]

@lookingatcrap I don't know- March is such a damn good album, I'm sorry he isn't bigger. At least A Mann he are awesome!

[shelski72]

@lookingatcrap I know eh? his music hurts and feels good at the same time.

[darthbimmer45]

@lookingatcrap GF? have no idea why he`s not.....

[xeropressure]

@lookingatcrap Because anything good, anyone with real talent or skill are not celebrated any more. This is the golden age of mediocrity.

[RabbiRizzle]

Wonderful song : he's a great song writer but this really sounds like it was written by his wife, Aimee Mann. Does anyone know if that is the case?

[TheCaterozza]

think that here for Walter reed is intended the army hospital where the soldiers from Iraq are taken when they'r hurt... These thoughts are true? Walter reed was the one who discover that the yellow fever was transmitted by mosquitoes.

[TheCaterozza]

3X5 dr house, wonderful voice and... extraordinarily music...

[Manbearpig240]

who is walter reed?

[ljm531]

the video and the song together are like having a lovely dream <3

[77MrAlexander]

thank's Dr house for knowing me this artist!!!just excellent!!

[ilikepiewhenblownup]

[0Elijah0]

[ViperJones]

@0Elijah0 Nope

[ziteme88]

I like this song !

[JesseReith1]

awesome! why no new comments for over 8months? xD

[imatool64]

great song

[monny287]

This song used to come on when I was at work a couple of years ago. It was weird, because I used to go to Walter Reed for things when I was a kid.

[helpmeifucann]

love it at the 2:25 mark

[kingoftao]

aswesome!

heard it from house s3 and i'm addicted

[ckukla]

Phenomenal!

[scottmattinson]

This bloke is amazing

[SerenityRox99]

This is possibly my favourite song, like of all songs ever, not just Penn's songs, but all songs, even more then Hurricane by Bob Dylan.

[paperbacknovel]

Should have been -- should be -- a hit song on the radio, getting lots of rotation. Even the artsy fartsy independent alternative radio stations that are always asking for money so they can play new independant artists like Tom Petty and Bob Dylan like WFUV or WFMU or WKCRW don't play it. Actually WKCRW played it once. Once.

[Gaz0175]

Michael Penn is one of the great songwriters of his generation - props to Thorne06 for posting this.

[OffMyLawnNOW]

Such a awesome song! ^-^

Also House MD FTW!

[metaeducation]

A new wave of Penn-interest due to a TV show. Well THERE'S a step in the right direction. His marketing tactics have always been a bit ineffective.

(Like his website, or his last album cover: A test pattern and in the center a photoshop-errant head. Seriously look up "Mr. Hollywood Jr 1947". What demographic is that targeting, precisely?)

Try is still my favorite song, and the video for that is one continuous shot. So for Michael newbies check it out.

[Gaz0175]

@metaeducation

Well... you can't expect a man who's record label is called 'mimeograph' to exactly be concerned with modern pop promotional ventures... just sayin'...

[gojoe150]

Great song, but I know a lot of WWII vets who are getting a bit tired of being paraded about as scarred victems by modern film makers and song writers. Still, Penn makes his point very well in this amazing song and video

Cordially

Joe

[misantropaable]

woa....

nothing else to say....

[GennyDepp9]

In loveee!

[162andsinglebaby]

[TypicalSquint]

Awesome song :)

[RichieDee123]

This song is played near to the end of House Season 3, Episode : Fool's For Love, when he's on the motorbike and the couple split finally. I thought it was a wicked tune. Hunted it down. =) House FTW.

[tenrecc]

Guess I'm not the only one who found this song through House MD. :)

[Pacotac037]

@IIXRoxasXII This is the truth.

[IIXRoxasXII]

@Pacotac037 I like it when other people have the same opinion as me :)

[123uponatime]

@IIXRoxasXII Problem is remembering the lyrics and typing them into google ><

[LACIPPO]

the house power

[run2thestore]

Loved this song the moment I heard it when he released it as a free download in early '05. I was ECSTATIC when I heard it on House. I can't wait til Michael releases a new album.

[justabitdense]

House rules and so does this song! :D

[Standing7]

Astonishing. This song is everything but new and you guys need TV to get aware of it.

[derfalke1]

The House always wins...

[TheAlabama007]

Yeah ... I heard it in House M.D. it is pretty good ...

[Sciocco99]

Also heard it on House, just started writing down random phrases from it instantly so I could track it down later ^^

Wonderful melody!

[ReddestxXxApple]

i do that too!! every time i hear a song on the radio or whatever i'm afraid they won't say the title so i can look it up. ^^ and House is amazing <3

[thebobr]

lol looks like most of people find this song by watching house :D greetings from poland :d

[LordJashin]

House has the best soundtracks. Thanks to that unbeleviably good show, I have found many new songs and bands to listen.

Greetings from Finland.

[justabitdense]

aijaa! Mistäpäin suomee oot? :D

[LordJashin]

Oulusta. :)

[justabitdense]

awesome! Ite oon Vaasasta :)

[Schizm1]

House MD united people by songs^^

[zandubalm18]

me too.. house kiks ass !! - ibban , ituts

[unseensmokesigns]

This song is a little out of context the song walter reed has to do with a soldier's desire to go to WRAMC in d.c. The idea of wanting to give up is the same but I guess it's all the same.

[seraphoftreason3]

ohhhh...that's what they called mr. reeds facility.?

[twitchsix20five]

Are you serious? This song was played on the show called "House". Walter Reed has nothing to do with the show other than it was played during a touching moment in the episode.

[seraphoftreason3]

what is dr. house?

[Chtitenini]

The same :) Dr House on wednesday. And I loved that song !

[toocoolforu]

lol me too, TF1 :P

And I don't got a problem with that, It's a brilliant song.

[snakewherever]
