Terrible song. I'm really mad he cut Rock Show down to fit this annoying song in on the latest tour.

I love the song. I know it was based off the dog Jet,but the lyrics make it sound like its about a young lady getting married a little too young....and he digs her. Anyway, whether it's nonsense or not( alot of songs seem to mean little to nothing if you take the literal meaning of the lyrics) its a good song to me.

I haven't seen the show. Is he doing Venus and Mars / Rock Show / Jet like he did to open the Wings Over America tour in '76?

Great song! Kicks *** from the get go. Nice touch this tour with rolling it into the back of Venus & Mars / Rock Show. Wished he'd have gone a bit longer with Rock Show, that song has always got me going.

Almost. He does up to the first chorus of Rock Show and then bursts into Jet.

I guess the line "green metal suit" is a bit too 70's for 2010.
