I noticed about 100 busted windows in your house.

Sorry. "Save Me A Place" IS musical sludge.

"Don't know why I have to woo-ork.
Don't know why I ca-an't plaa-ay.
Turn me off, turn me ou-out,
But do-on't tu-urn me a-wa-ay.
Saaaaaaaaaaaa-aaaaaaaaaave.... me a plaa-ace.
I'll come runnin', if you loooooooooooooooo-oooooooove me todaaa-aay...."

*yawn*

Other than the harmonies, there's absolutely nothing of any interest going on in the song. It's about as interesting as watching molasses roll up a hill in June.

"Sara" is an alchemic masterpiece of beautiful lyrics, lilting vocals and sublime instrumentation.
"Save Me A Place" is just sludge.

(Oh, and a boo and a hiss to those voting against "That's All For Everyone." )
