A Zeppelin-esque riff anchors this simple but effective song.

It sounds zeppelinesque because it IS Zeppelin

'In the Evening' was the opening song on Led Zepplein's 'In through the out door' album.

And people make fun of Cary Tennis

Marchese is clueless. In a world with Pitchfork, it should be very hard to make the claim of "worst music writer" but somehow Salon has it. BTW, Cary Tennis is great.

It's not the same song. Listen before you bash.

Sigh

The riff is so superior on the Zep song, this one is pretty trite and childish. I say childish because Ms Nastasia has that same droning voice that so many females do today.....which makes her sound tired. Thumbs down.
