Ohhh great light
of loooooove
Ohh greeeeeeat light
of LOVE!

I love this song. Such a sweet groove. I know the better half of you hate it, but I love roi and stefan's playing in the bridge. That alone makes the song worth listening to.

The whole song seems out of place with dave, and the lyrics, however sexual they are, are lame IMO. Compared to the other songs on the album, it just sounds so dissonnant and pointless. As far as the tracklist goes, I would have made Lousiana Bayou the last song and switched it with hunger.

i love this song, it was great at randells island and is a good song lyricaly and in the groove.
i think the opening great light of love bit is a joke intended to build a shock a bit when the hard guitar breaks in. ... some people hate it but , thinking back
.......when they were showing clips on that "newstudioalbum" website and it showed stefan playing the electric everyone was saying how bad they thought it was, i recon a lot of people judged the song on that riff he played before they truly listened to the song.............oh yeah and lerio makes that chours, so simple but great..............
,...anyone else feel it kind of resembles the kinks "all day and all of the night"
