09 Mar 03 ·konsu: Yeah. This song has so much ragged beauty. The whole records just a circus of deranged,
delightful tracks. I also like "Maisy" ,"Wined & Dined" , & "Dominoes"... 28 Oct 05 ·n-jeff: I love it too, theres a fantastic version done for one of the John Peel sessions that Strange Fruit put out in the eighties, that is equally wayward, and equally good. Considering how slight it is, and how lacking in obvious "Psychedelic" conventions, it is surprisingly my favourite Barrett song.
10 Jun 04 ·eftimihn: A strong statement, which is debatable to say the least... 12 Jun 04 ·camus: Surely not, I just can't grasp what angle you're coming from, an obtuse one I believe, or is that a triangle, whatever, it's mathematically insane. 15 Oct 04 ·roberto: Hmmm, I thought "Burning Love" performed by Elvis Presley is the best song ever...
17 Oct 04 ·konsu: Personally, I could never make up my mind on that one. Which I somehow find comforting. 17 Oct 04 ·olli: actually, it's pretty cool if you pitch it down about 400% and adjust the speed back to normal. that makes him sound like a romantically inclined orc or something.

It sounds just like Olli's description!!! "Romantically inclined orc" 17 Mar 05 ·eftimihn: This is funny sounding indeed, the whole song takes on a whole new quality with a very dark and disturbingly menacing feel. Could now also be called "The ogre in red"...
I don't know if Jeffery Lee Peirce was a genius, but I find this song and album to be. ;)
from Fire of Love, available on CD
