I played Cast a Shadow on my college radio show that I had in 2004, and this jazz DJ asked me to explain why I liked it to him.
I saw Calvin Johnson at a hole in the wall sort of club doing is solo "What Was Me" stuff. It was really cool, he was the one there selling his records. He did a cool cover of Hard Travellin by Woodie Guthrie after an explanation of how he didn't know it was a Woodie Guthrie song. He added in a line about thinking that the war on terrorism was a bunch of BS population control and it fit right in.
He stood in the middle of everyone, no mics or anything, he didn't use the stage because he said it felt "cave like."
Bewitched was my favorite song to listen to when I was a senior in high school whenever I had a crush on a girl
