Or, as some people call it, "Ain't That a Shame."   :D   WOS.

I posted too soon -- the intro sure sounded like it was gonna be "Surrender".  Oh those wacky, inscrutable Japanese!

"Pearl Bailey, Nanette Fabray, Don Adams" and Joe Jackson.  I'd prefer sonething other than "Is She Really...", but it remains one of the great debuts.

Oooh, "Cruel to be Kind."  I need to go over to the worst songs thread.  I got a new one for my list.

WOS.

I wish I'd been listening to "Sara" last night when I was having difficulty getting to sleep.  Eyes were getting droopy just now, for sure.

a bad song or just an overplayed one?

VHM Ms Nicks & da Mac, "Sara". Imagine if Tusk had been a KILLER single-disc package.

ETA: post-set, a more obvious Worst Song nominee: Frampton, "I'm in You".

Ah, the Tusk quandary: Deprive the album of its coked-out bloat, do you also deprive it of its coked-out genius?
