It's good! Along with Prettyman, Strange But True and I Love You But I Don't Trust You Anymore, it makes Rave Un2 worth your time.

I find myself listening to Rave In2 more than Rave Un2, for sure. After the songs I mentioned above, I'd rank the lamb under the CD as the next best thing on the CD. smile

Oh...and Tangerine, too. :hide:

What's up with this Rave IN2 album I keep hearing about? Is it a boot? I know that it has some different versions of the Rave UN2 tunes....other than that what are some of the other differences?

By the way, Rave In2 is great and So Far.... is definitely one of the highlights on it!

It's okay. Kinda gets on my nerves. Gwen's voice is so weak you can barely even hear her.

It should have been a single with a kick ass video, it would have been a hit.

I'm probally the biggest fan of Rave on the org

The production kills the song; I don't think it could've been a hit in 1999 unless he remixed some life into it. It's sterile and bland on disc. I don't understand how the man that gave us 'Let's Go Crazy', 'Bambi', 'The Cross', 'I Could Never Take...', 'Shhh', and 'Little Red Corvette' could lay down such a weak, uninspired, predictable guitar solo.

Agreed.

But I still love the song despite the production.

I listen to Rave alot when I surf the internet.
