Only Over You and Wish You Were Here were the two songs that immediately jumped to mind for me when I read the word generic. Neither the music or the lyrics of those two songs go anywhere surprising or very interesting IMO. I looooove Christine but those two to me are a couple of her worst.
Ya know Blinker, I felt that way when I first heard them. Then I really grew to love WYWH and OOY. There's something genius about them.

Have you ever heard her pour her heart out in this version?
I think she really captures the pain and angst of the original song's intent.
I'd love to hear OOY live.
