It's funny
(or not that funny) that both Family Man and Oh Diane were singles! It's amazing that Oh Diane, in particular, was a minor hit in Europe. I even have a 12" picture sleeve record of the song. It's a thin whisp of a song, but it has grown on me, as a little musical sketch.
Some of Lindsey's lyrics push the limits brevity and simplicity, however the evidence from his more recent records shows his lyrics have more substance.
