Something about Corgan's grating voice doesn't work for me as much when the songs are stripped down. ("For Martha" aside, that is - and thanks.) Glad you're perennially digging Over the Rhine. I have an "If A Song Could Be President"-themed bumper sticker, red white & blue, that says Bergquist/Detweiler 2008. It's great and, yeah, still timely. That whole album, The Trumpet Child, stands out, though especially "Trouble" (one of the best singles of '08 that was never a single), "I Don't Wanna Waste Your Time," and "Desperate For Love." They were on tour with Ani DiFranco this late winter actually but pulled up the reins on that when Detweiler's father unexpectedly died. I prefer the Nicks/Fleetwood version of “Landslide” yet.

But the song was not originally by the pumpkins. They Covered it as well from Stevie Nicks. Landslide is a good cover. But the song was not originally by the pumpkins.
