I feel this is a heartbreaking song and one that is severely underrated. I think it could be brilliant if redone today.

It doesn't sound like a song. I'm glad she likes Mabel Normand. Why doesn't she write a song about Francis Farmer, while she is at? I mean if she could write a song about Mabel that sounded like Bette Davis Eyes, I would be sold. She's belting anything about Mabel.
