I'm also interested in which you think are Lindsey's singer-songwriter pieces on Law And Order and Go Insane, or Mirage and Tango In The Night for that matter. From OOTC onwards I can understand your statement, due to the increasing introspectiveness in his lyrics, but as for the earlier work I'm having difficulties with it. Personally I could call "Without A Leg To Stand On" a piece of Californian pop-rock, I do not see what makes it particularly singer-songwriterish.

On Law and Order he showed us this same side with "Shadow of the West" and on Go Insane with "D.W. Suite." And yes, he has brought this side of him much more to the forefront with his more recent offerings. Does that clarify? Edit: For Mirage, I'll give you that one. I pretty much try to forget that album even exists. As for Tango, the title track. Last edited by Miss Vicky; 08-01-2005 at 04:35 PM.. |

I should have said. Quote:
I mean the Beatles, "She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah" - classic! Someone once asked Paul Simon what he thought the greatest lyrics in a pop song were and he replied: "Be bop a-lula, she's my baby", and he's right, sometimes those simple things are the most memorable and effective.

I think Holiday Road is an awesome song! I love it and it's repetitiveness. I think its fun. I'm known to love many fun songs. I enjoy Obla-Di Obla-Da and I admit to owning (and playing rather frequently) the original "Willy Wonka" soundtrack.
I think SGTCYM is a better song for me because it moves me more. The words and the emotion he puts into it, plus the music are SO beautiful. That's just my definition of what makes a song better, but there is nothing wrong with digging a nice, sweet, bouncy song like HR and if you like that kind of stuff, and prefer it, then it is better to you. Anyway, I pretty much love everything Lindsey does, to varying degrees. He's really a genius and I feel so lucky to be so acquainted with all this brilliant music.

The whole damn country was humming that chorus after seeing "Vacation." You'd never see anything similar with "Someone's Gotta Change," which sounds like a cross between Yoko Ono & James Taylor on a bender.

But yes, we love it all... well I love it all except "Oh Diane" - probably the only Buckingham song that I can't stand - and that is what matters. |

You're saying that Empire state and Book of Love, and even Can't Go Back are typical pop songs? |
