"Special Kind of Love" appreciation post
 
Does anybody else really like "Special Kind of Love"?

(The song is very short and apparently an outtake from Tango sessions).

I don't like this song. It's too cheesy.

I don't recall ever hearing it... :shrug:

No.

The cheesiest thing I feel is the chord progression. I can only hope that if they were to develop it into an album song they would've added a lot to it, especially in lyric department! ;) But as it was I guess it was sort of a 'chorus demo', much like Goodbye Angel. :)

Ugh. That is one lame "song", if you can even call it that. There was a reason it was never completed! Very annoying.

So I guess I can't join in the appreciation. :(

Yucko. Couldn't even listen once through.

"If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all"..... so i'll keep my opinion of "Special Kind Of Love" to myself! *lol*

But I wanted to show my support for "Goodbye Angel," which I think is a terrific song.
Definitely one of Lindsey's best from that era. :)

Hmm I can't say I ever listen to it, but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt that (considering we were never meant to hear it) it may just have been turned into a half decent song. That said, 'You & I pt II ' makes me retch and its much of a same thing. :p

Just dreadful.

:laugh: Great description, Sharon.

If for no other reason, "You And I, Part II" is a keeper simply for the line, "Keep your heart open and your eyes shut tight... what will be, will be."

I love that lyric. :)

I wouldn't be surprised to see "Special Kind Of Love" on the Rhino remastered Tango In The Night

haha i didn't expect so much distaste for special..., or for you & i part ii. in all honesty, i started a you & i (both parts) appreciation post a few months ago. i don't remember if there was a chorus of praise for the songs or not. i think special... is catchy. if it wasn't so cheesy i would like it less. since its so short, if i'm going to listen to it, i repeat it 3-5 times.

i hope it's on the reissue of tango.
