Great album! Ian Thornley never ceases to amaze me. My all time Big Wreck favorite is 'That Song'...AMAZING. I think War Baby takes the cake on this album.
Didn't even know it was a cover 'till I saw this comment. I mean, they made it so much their own, that I didn't notice it standing weirdly out on the album. Nice to know, though.
Right, so I was at a Buffalo Wild Wings in the Kansas City area and I happened to hear another song by this band. I was led down the path of curiosity and well here I am. Wow. This is music being played by musicians. Thanks for posting.
Well shit man. You got the perfect introduction. It takes time to develop a body of work people can pull from and find resonance. But that takes 20 years. Ian's just hitting his stride really and I'm just waiting for certain people to get a clue and give him that call. I'm looking at you Crossroads Guitar Festival...
I know right? THIS is the band I should have been listening to in the 90's. The little splashes of Tears for Fears, Led Zep, Hall and Oats, Eagles, and Billy Joel all wrapped up in a Soundgarden/grunge package. I haven't purchased an album in 10 years. Today I change that. Money well and goodly spent to support an artist who has truly earned it.

+BoilerBloodline I really love That Song. heh
Tom Robinson is a true lyricist. I hope to be able to write a song half as good as this one someday.
Have u done it yet?
This song says just about everything I am feeling in my life right now.
Haunting version, beautiful.
Fantastic song.
Great cover of Tom Robinson 1983 number 1 hit.

Take care bro.
This song is audiological heroin; I am an addict...
couldn't have put it better
I feel that!
I prefer the original but I need to know more about this band. Excellent cover of a classic.
hauntingly mesmerizing!
The highest of bars set..ever
It saddens me to say that I only discovered Big Wreck recently. The first song I heard by them was the oaf, then albatross and so on
There's MUCH more to come!! Read all about it!

a good remake it is, and I adore Tom's original ;)
Great cover.
Hi, Rick: How are you? Hope you are doing well during these difficult times! Best wishes, Al.
Reminds me of how im trapped in myself with my memories of you...
I surrender
Much better then the original.
Idiot..
better than original perhaps
Ironic that a Northrup-Grumman commercial preceded this video... < Ugh! >
There are some songs that should never be covered and this is one of them.
Really nice cover. Shame about the Melodyne. :/
