OMG - I had forgotten how awesome/moving this song is - I’ll have to break the album back out 😢🌞

It's wild I remember being 19 watching this same video on KZbin like it was yesterday. I was slowly becoming a huge Failure fan, but I still hadn't found a CD of Fantastic Planet. Got one a year later in 08. It's just weird that this video is 17 years old when it feels like I watched it a couple of years ago.

Still listening in 2024

Welcome to the autotune-free zone. Enjoy your stay.

Pete didn't call it weird, he called it Interesting.

When your phone goes and it's Pete Twosned asking you about tunings for your song, you know you're onto something! Good punchy interview - thanks for uploading.

this album came out on vinyl and can’t for it to come in!

Beautiful

One of the best songs ever composed.

Saw him play live in NYC in some tiny venue back in like..ehhhh...2001....played this one and many others - the level of talent is insane and so underrated.

Dave is one of the coolest guys on this planet!

Musician awake at 11 AM on a Saturday? Obviously fake

This never fails to move me to tears

What a brilliant story. For an epic song❤

Steve Earle is among the best singer/songwriters around! God bless him.

I walked up to Dave one night and then asked him if he knew Pete Townsend and his having to do with his song on my cassette tape that I had bought from a liquor store on the avenue in Ventura CA and yes Dave answered and explains how rock stars have an ability for writing hits!! Any questions please?? Save it for later baby

Neil Young wrote this song for a possible soundtrack for a movie about a post-apocalyptic future where inhabitants of earth have to leave their planet because they had destroyed it.

Talk DJs are guys that are in love with their own voice…creating drama just so they can talk and talk and talk.

Still cuts right thru me after all this time ❤Timeless song, timeless voice

wow look at the cupcakes in the comments thinking it was a real fight

Peculiar, to me, as this version progresses, how I start to hear the ENTIRETY of the instrumentation of the original become present. Aural memory is not unlike muscle memory, in that aspect, apparently 😁😅 Good things, all😁 Amazing stuff, unreal, only

I followed CW for years. Best live band ever. But my custom built Mercedes is faster than Rob’s designs

this is just fucking magic

Amazing

I wish we got the part of the interview where he explained what the song is about - sucks that wasnt added.

Incredible! Also love the TALK TALK nod

I love it,,,

Killer bass here

I love your music, but MANY people are meant to live apart/together. I'm 54 and looking for a couple days a week to act like a couple, go out for a nice dinner or show with no long term..

Takes me back to my junior year and the first years of MTV! They were my first concert! Needless to say, they were AMAZING!

I still love Mad Dog, a track that one of the more idiotic of the American music magazines singled out for a special critical mauling. I find similarities in its mood with Bowie's Fall Dog Bombs The Moon - another of my favourites.

Magic

I love Steve's music like forever❤

I love this band so much this album permanently carved into my brainstem

As recovering heroin addict who used for 23yrs and has been clean for 4yrs now I fully understand this song.

Patti Smith has not always been a real charmer, but Nugent has apparently always been worse than just terrible. Not someone to celebrate or fawn over.

Can't believe the intro is a distorted piano!

Only 118 likes for this priceless piece of rock n roll history? I don't get it!

Ted always liked to try and overpower women and girls for sex. 😮

Ted Nugent. A true pos. Always have been and always will be. A true pos.

She tells him not to touch her and he says that’s what you said last nite and obviously touched her again. I’m glad she decked him

Til Victory queued up….sweet

For such a clean and sober guy, Ted sure acts like an obnoxious drunk.

Ted Nugent has always been a piece of garbage. Although I found it hilarious when he had his reality/game show That was supposed to be a man's man's competition Was Won by the openly gay guy kind of goes to show that maybe Ted Nugent is a little bit light in the loafers and might possibly enjoy the tube steak😂

June 16th, 1978. Patti punched Ted; way to go Patti!

I didn't realize that ted neugent was such an unattractive everything. How unappealing and lacking. It's apparent that he feels that he must make up for lacking elsewhere ... like maybe in the weener area, or something?

Sad written commentary. Just close your eyes. Much better.

Ha ha ha.He needs to get nailed in the solar plexus every day until he learns to shut his cake hole.

WABX. Without a doubt, the best radio station to ever come across the airwaves. Sad to see the state of FM radio today.

Ted is a colossal prick. Always has been. Utterly worthless
