i used to know with this lady named mary jo at the grocery store i w previously worked at and the b n s song describes her to a t! When I play it on my guitar, or try anyway, i just ad lib some story she would make up to get out of work. She was truly an old, lonely pain in the ass but she would have the most ridiculous things to say. Anyway, my favorite song on the new album is either don't leave the light on baby or too much love. Chalet lines bums me out and the rest are so so. This whole album seems to revolve more around the keyboard than the guitar. There's also more male and female vocals which is a plus. I don't know though if I like this one better than any of the others.

6.nice day for a sulk (reminds me of 'raindrops keep fallin on my head by sacha distell - ooh and the ringo by numbers thing - so true... makes me skip down the road if there's noone there)

this always mixes in my head with "martha, my dear" from the white album. i think it's just the way the melody goes up high in the chorus. other than that, i don't think i've heard such a meticulous magical mystery pepper recreation before, they must've been pumping geoff emerick for information. "no no, i want *that* vocal sound, with *that* echo. awwwwww, cmon geoff!" if i remember correctly, richard was saying it was very beach boys-influenced, but it seems much more english to me.

as for "electronic renaissance", i've been re-evaluating it since the discussion came up here and i really do like it now after habitually skipping it for months. i think it's the tinny echo on stuart's voice that hooks me. i still avoid "mary jo" though. ("you *what*?!") i know a lot of people love that song, but it tends to kill the giddy sort of melancholy i get from the previous two songs. there's things i can identity with in her story, and then all of a sudden she's leaving me for dead! yeesh. *you're* brutal and i'm afraid of you, mary. :)

jay, who's still blushing at receiving a crush vote
