In like the rose that grows in your soul
Out of time, now you're out for more
In like the stone that forms in your heart
Out of reach but you can't give up this time

I'm on a wire
To see your star
Shine

In like the sun that falls on us all
Out of time but you can't let go
Into the dark you've stumbled alone
Out of sight, now you can't return this time

I'm on a wire
To see your star
Shine
I'm on a wire
To see your star

I've been blind
I've torn out my eyes, but I fear no more
I've been blind
You've turned from my side, but I felt your voice

In like the cold that grows in your bones
Out of time, now you can't go on
End of the road you've taken alone
Devil's hands will replace the ones I've known

I'm on a wire
To see your star
Shine
I'm on a wire
To see your star

(Please darling)
I'm on a wire
(Hear me darling)
I've taken your silence, but I can't no more
(See darling, you don't owe them nothing)
(Please darling)
I'm on a wire
(Hear me darling)
You fade in the light where I can't follow
(See darling, you don't owe them nothing)

Time keeps this love alive
But your hope is gone

I've heard this transition before - from Ghosts Again by Depeche Mode to In Like the Rose.

It just makes so much sense that I added it to a playlist.

Seems like we're hearing a bit more BRMC recently - a very good thing! And this is a fine tune, among many others.

“They sound like Oasis. Pretty gritty.” They don’t sound like a Beatles cover band at all.

Such a great band! Always love their work. Still think their first album is probably their best, and every album has gems on them.

I don't know what it is about BRMC that gets me, but it seems like every song gets a two-point increase just because it's by them. This is no different, it just slaps. 9 over here.

Nice way to start my day.  RP does it again, been a listener for a long time, perfect example of why I will continue
to be.

2nd time RP Rock Mix has played this song in the last couple of hours. Maybe more songs should be added. I like more variety than a top 20 station.


If this happens hit the 'Sync' button, select Main Mix and rock on.

These guys are the absolute dog's bollox. Rockin' yet subtle, and I love the way the contrast between their name and music does the heads in of some folk on RP. I've got one of their CDs already but best add this one to the collection, I think. 8 from the Nottingham jury.

The mood of the station had been going too slow for the last hour. I'm glad to have this song helping to pick up the pace. Enjoyable.



I am relieved that in 2004 this person found the music they were looking for.

Nope, some of them are former members of The Brian Jonestown Massacre. Maybe thinking of Black Label Society?

I don't hand out many 9's, but even after listening to this tune on RP for nearly three years, I still can't justify dropping the rating. Truly outstanding and always stands out on the playlist for me.

Boring. Their first album was so much better, IMO. This just sounds like bland, imitation, early-90's Brit-Pop. Their current album, which has taken more of an Alt-Country tack is better as well.

I also agree. Not asking for death-metal or anything, but a little more of the heavy stuff would be much appreciated. I actually find myself having to *gasp* switch stations every once-in-a-while to get my metal fix.
When it's mixed with the lighter music it stands out as being pretty heavy. A bit much for here at work...

This is not even half as heavy as I would sometimes like it, so I second that motion. As long as it's good-quality heavy stuff.... it's all in the "eclectic"!!
