  • Since this is called India Song, some tablas and a little sitar would have been a nice touch.

  • @vveq experimentation is central for rock music, I haven't a clue as for the result though, best thing is to ask the artist straightforward

  • i love india song

  • these guys had better harmonies than CSN&Y

  • @vveq If I may offer my own thoughts on the subject: This isn't so much a song about India, as it it about musing about a simpler life. Literalism isn't necessary in art. I prefer juxtapositions in the arts.

  • Happy Birthday, Andy !

  • Screw the A.V. Club for characterizing this song as a "turd".

    It's actually quite charming.

  • This song is so simple, yet tugs at the heart. I love how they used a mellotron for the flute sound. I saw the Big Star/Posies hybrid band back in 1993 at the House of Blues In Hollywood, so glad I saw Alex perform before he passed.

  • R.I.P. andy hummel. thank you for this and many other songs.

  • This year sucks. My sis, Alex , Jim Dickinson, Mark Linkous, and now Andy...

  • R.I.P. Andy Hummell. You meant so much to so many
