Train SUCKS.

[Kakkaraun]

So, I couldn't sleep last night, and I was watching that fuck-ass Carson Daly show that took Late Friday off the air, the bastards. And what should I see, but Train doing a cover of Led Zeppelin's Ramble On. Given that that's one of my favorite Zeppelin songs, I was somewhat glad. They did a good job of it, too...until they cut out the best, coolest, most important part of the song. In bold here is what they cut:

Leaves are falling all around, It's time I was on my way.
Thanks to you, I'm much obliged for such a pleasant stay.
But now it's time for me to go. The autumn moon lights my way.
For now I smell the rain, and with it pain, and it's headed my way.
Sometimes I grow so tired, but I know I've got one thing I got to do...

*Ramble On, And now's the time, the time is now, to sing my song.
I'm goin' 'round the world, I got to find my girl, on my way.
I've been this way ten years to the day, Ramble On,
Gotta find the queen of all my dreams.

Got no time to for spreadin' roots, The time has come to be gone.
And to' our health we drank a thousand times, it's time to Ramble On.

* Chorus

Mine's a tale that can't be told, my freedom I hold dear.
How years ago in days of old, when magic filled the air.
T'was in the darkest depths of Mordor, I met a girl so fair.
But Gollum, and the evil one crept up and slipped away with her, her, her....yeah.

* Chorus

Gonna ramble on, sing my song. Gotta keep-a-searchin' for my baby...
Gonna work my way, round the world. I can't stop this feelin' in my heart
Gotta keep searchin' for my baby. I can't find my bluebird!

If that isn't "What the FUCK?!?" enough for you, they replaced this portion of the song with Bad Company's (I think) "Feel Like Makin' Love."

The FUCK?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Fuck Train and the horse they rode in on. They don't have the right to deface a classic (and another fairly good song at the same time) like that. The bastards.

UPDATE: Train still sucks.
