Onya Jeremy - Progress is a great song - at their best, MO are like a spike of adrenaline straight to the heart.
Apparently Progess was/is one of PG's faves to play live - he loved spitting out those venomously sarcastic lyrics.
You may be saaaafe in your hemisphere, but there's so much junk in the stratosphere....

It's been a bit quiet since the gigs, but I had an Oils epiphany on a few days ago that I wanted to share. I was cruising along on my normal morning run and had my iPod on shuffle with some 3000+ songs (10% Oils). Many songs had driving beats, perfect for a run, but then "Progress" came on and it was like the world changed. My body felt no pain and all I wanted to do was PLAY music! I love the Oils because, every time I listen (which is daily), I just want to be back on stage performing and playing music. I feel their live energy every time I listen and sadly, I'm one of those that NEVER saw the Oils live...what an amazing band...

P.S. I also can't get over how much I love the way Peter sings, "Manhattanization is comiiiiIIIIIiiin'" in the studio version of "Progress"...phenomenal :-)
