You might need to let your computer have the time to load the song entirely in the widget before pushing the play button. Also, the volume button on the widget needs to be pushed at its maximum. By default, it is at a low position.

Actually, it is when you press play that the song plays/load.

This widget looks so 2004. ah ah !

The more I listen to this song the more I Love it. I think this is one of his best of all time. It´s just great. Seems the majority of people on the forum like it too. It´s strange though, it seems the only people that don´t care for it are those that really liked the Christmas song. It just goes to show there are a variety of things to like about Simon´s music.

I can not get this thing to work!!! It is taking forever!!! I tried "letting it download first" as suggested here, but it just said "done" at the bottom of my screen & nothing about downloading. When I push play it comes in spits & spurts. If anyone could PLEASE email this song in some kind of file to "[email protected]" I´d be most grateful. Thanks & Blessings!

Yes,it takes a while to load and I had to turn the volume up all the way to hear it but it was really worth it. I like the song. I´m looking forward to the new album more and more.

I finally got it to work. My work computer did not allow me to get to the widget. I had to do it at home. I really enjoyed the song & can´t wait to hear the rest of the album. Thanks for posting this!

Love it. Can imagine Paul really enjoying playing this live. Maybe it could be a concert opener as well.

I think this another one to file in the "capturing the sound of Mystery Train" category.

It remains much of Peter Gabriel in the last verse i think. I have lisening and listening to this song and is growingfor me but i think the christmas song is more in my taste, but i must admire at the last verse is a relly major work

Well, the song has been with us for two days now, and I must admit that I really Love it.

GRFCD & this one seems to be based on the same pattern : a great guitar riff, repeated throughout. To which, Simon began to dress the songs and ornament them with various effects (cool sounds, bluesy guitar chords, etc.). Percussions do not seem to take the forefront here like in YTO. Guitars are at the front.

But SBOSW appears more complete and mature in various ways (lyrics, back vocals).

Well done Mr. Simon !

Pelle, I agree with you that the last verse has a really special feel to it, but I also feel that the rest of the song helps to build up to that, and the impression of the last verse owes a lot to the foundation laid by the earlier parts of the song.
