It gives me a peaceful easy feeling. I can't tell you why.

I tell ya though, she's still got that great voice. Yeah, this has got a bit of country twang, but it's a nice little song. She's gone all wistful in her old age. But then again, I think many others have as well - think Ian and Echo with "What If We Are" or Barney and New Order with "Run Wild".

Saw Kimmel last night, The Pretenders did not impress me last night, nor when they were on Letterman performing the first single...

Any one heard the new album in its entirety? Comments? How would you rate it? Excellent, Good Fair, Poor, etc.

Yeah, I have the album. It's straight up traditional country music. That's not a bad thing per se (Elvis Costello does it all the time) but if you're looking for the Pretenders sound of old it's not on this album. Still nice listening though.
