Today's song is this Morrissey/Street composition, from the Viva Hate album.
What do we think?
The subtle connections between this and other songs like "Break Up The Family" feels like a story cycle where the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. As great as the song is on its own it feels like part of something larger.
Especially if your fingers were trapped .I've always thought that this is one of those songs is very nearly a classic but just fails. It has a great lyric but the harmonic structure of the song is just not interesting enough and I've never liked the percussion, especially the 'car door slamming' which just sounds jarring.
I've just listened and still haven't registered any car door slam. No worries though. It won't drive me insane. Maybe someday I'll pick up on the sound. With earphones say.I've always thought that this is one of those songs is very nearly a classic but just fails.
