Oh, that's ok. I think maybe it wasn't Sugarland. When I was trying to find the artist, I looked at Sugarland because it just reminded me of them. It was kind of sultry. The lyrics were like, "come on in, the water's fine." But you know how it is, every time you hear something you like, the DJ never tells you who the performer is.

Oooh I like that one. It is so funny, you can't even tell that he's from Australia - he does the accent so well.

K.U.'s music, even his first album release, which is NOT country, had a great rock sound to it.

Btw, He was born in New Zealand

and there's your full circle and LB connection - KU cites LB as one of his biggest guitar influences.

live in concert I have to say I see equal parts LB & Mark Knopfler...Though K.U. did toss a pick in the audience at the Sept.2001 show that ended up underneath my roachstomper, which became part of Debbie's K.U. memorabilia - C'mon K.U., a guitar pick when ya played the whole show WITHOUT one (We had front row seats) then ya toss one, lame

Oh, I thought he was Australian. Everyone always talks about his going back home with his wife. Okay, I'm an idiot

Funny that you used that phrase, "come on in, the water's fine." It's funny because my comment was a well-worn paraphrase of a line in Bette Midler's The Rose (When a Man Loves a Woman monologue) which says, "dive right in, baby, the water is fine". LOL

Yes, I think the derivation of the phrase goes even farther back than The Rose, but it's just funny because I'd been wracking my brain trying to find lyrics that would lead me to the song I wanted and your terminology was right in line with my search terms. It's like you were in my brain.
