Out on the endless wire..out on the endless wire..out on the - you gotta be kidding me? He sings the same two or three lines fifty times with some lyrics that make absolutely no sense and he's supposed to be great? Endless Wire by Gordon Lightfoot..now THAT'S a great album by a GREAT singer and lyricist. Townsend sounds washed up and this is his effort at staying in a game that kicked him to the curb a decade ago. Time to hang up the guitar Pete. You owe nobody anything.

@tyme4mike Are you Fucking high?

[tyme4mike]

@Jiggs46 Wouldn't matter if I was. Lightfoot is ten times the musician Townsend ever was or could ever hope to be. If musical ability was dynamite, Townsend wouldn't have enough to blow his fucking nose.

@tyme4mike Dear Gordon Lightfoot....You sir have a great sense of humor for a mental midget, now go back to being an obscure one hit wonder hack.

Endless Wire is a very good record, no matter what the doubters say.

@tyme4mike Gordon Lightfoot!!!!!!!!!! Surely you can't be serious comparing the accomplishments of Gordo to Pete Townshend. Not even close Townshends material is still relevent today and still influencing bands and song writers. And if Pete wants to play and write in his sixties he has earned it. It may be different but its still Townshend and well worth listening to. He has always had the balls to try new things with his music

@tyme4mike Gordon Lightfoot may be a good pop singer, but Pete Townshend and The Who were and still are the best rock band ever to play on a stage or record music. So if you don't like this song or The Who or Pete Townshend then as Pete would say: "Fuck off and get your sorry ass out of my sight".

@tyme4mike Music to you must be straightforward and easy to comprehend. And although I grew up listening to Gordo "sundown you better take care, when I find you've been creepin round my back stair" doesn't actually challenge or even stir the senses. I love both songwriters but Gordo doesn't come close to PT, not even close. And why would you criticize an artist that was "kicked to the curb 10 years ago" only to then mention one that hasn't been relevant in 30. Please shoot yourself.

@tyme4mike lyrics involve a certain amount of interpretation by the listener. Your inability to make sense of them rests solely on you, not the writer. You have no context for the song, but more importantly you don't care to know what they mean because let's face it, you're most likely the type that mindlessly consumes music.
