Rootless Tree

Yes, the one with all the swearing on it – with all the swearing removed. A snaggle-toothed bile-dripper ‘Rootless Tree’ was the slow-burn stand out on Rice’s 9 album; cleaned up for radio, the song retains its haunting reach. Points are deducted for the recycled card sleeve, though. There is such a thing as trying too hard, you know.
