Whoa!  BOS, and not FRA, to "You Can't Change That."  (Gaz does his finger-wag dance)

FRA?  Not a bad tune, but the repeated phrase gets a little tiresome after a while.  A pretty short while, in my case.

I don't think I've heard this since 1979, so it's resonating with me.  BOS & if I'm not mistaken, a bustout that Mike will rue missing.

I agree with you (repetition-wise).  On the other hand, JCM I Need A Lover is also very repetative, but I love it (still).

The intro redeems it, a la Sweet Jane.  Is it not John Cougar?  I thought it was old enough for that.

And what does FRA mean?
Ahh, thanks.

FRA?
"For Rarity Alone," a recently adopted acronym here to applaud bustouts and near-bustouts whether we adore the songs themselves or not.

It is most certainly old enough to be just John Cougar, in fact i had that album.  For simplicity I call all his stuff JCM, just like I don't distinguish between each of Prince's incarnations, and Macca is always Macca, Petty is Petty & Elvis is Elvis (& Linda, & Wings, & Heartbreakers, & Impressions, etc. notwithstanding).

HM to "Ain't No Stoppin' Us Now," but a proxy WOS from POC, who's criticized the pitchy vocals before.

I would add that the FRA shoutout is only fair, since we gripe so much about repetition.

Not as rare as it might seem, but nevertheless a BOS #3 for Third World "NTWFL"

Does "pitchy" mean off-pitch?  I noticed that too, but mostly I noticed that we've heard it a billion times.  Roughly.
