We sing the nightingale song alive
Streets never border further than my sight
We sing the nightingale song alive
We might be different but our hearts won't lie

And little ever changes if anything at all
But the song rings loudly through these halls

We sing the nightingale song alive
We might be different but our hearts won't lie

And little ever changes when you view it from the sky
And the damage we encounter the earth just passes by
And little ever changes if anything at all
And we remind ourselves how small we are

Dude sounds like a cross between Liam Gallagher and Roger Clyne.

Their best song. Big favorite! The only problem is: It's too short! Wish they kept the jam going.

Nevermind. I was thinking of Beat City by The Flowerpot Men in Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Doh!

Still doesn't beat the 50 cents I paid for  Crowded House's "Temple of Low Men" cassette at a lawn sale!

These guys are now in the "What ever happened to" category; too bad.
 
Aren't we all in the "whatever happened to" category?

I wonder if these guys had/have any idea how many fans they have/had, and how deep the appreciation for their music is/was.  This song always reestablishes my love for their music.

I love this album so much. Came out when I was in high school, and it takes me right back there, listening to it during the summer with a friend. Great song, great album, great memories. Thanks, RP, and thanks to the uploader.

True, I've had a few get rejected to get added later when someone else uploaded..so you never know.
Maybe it could have been the file you sent? I know they need the files a certain way, or they can't be used. Just a suggestion... maybe it wasn't your choice in music at fault! :o)
