Ah I remember more of these songs now ..I just wasn't aware that all of them were by XTC.They were actually pretty good.I'll have to revisit them.

I'm not a fanatic about XTC, but really enjoyed Dear God back in the day.
I also much, much prefer the Crash Test Dummies cover of The Ballad of Peter Pumpkinhead.

Skylarking is still one of my most favorite "go-to, haven't listened to in a while" albums. Oranges & Lemons wasn't on my fav list until quite some time after it came out. All XTC work prior to Skylarking, I'm hit and miss on.
