Default Over And Over

This has always been one of my absolute favorite songs of hers, and it doesn't seem to get talked about much. I personally think it's her best song on Tusk, and my personal favorite or hers, save only for Songbird. What do others think?

And it's one of the only songs that was better live, than the studio version.

I've actually got an excellent recording of it from Mobile Alabama on 8-11-80. Fantastic harmonies

I was talking about the Live album.
My god man, are you trying to go for THE ALLTIME RECORD NUMBER of daily posts? I can't read them as fast as you're posting them!

I've never heard of her. May I ask who she is?

Yes, he certainly is.

I have this "thing" against "Over & Over" due to it being the opening track...it makes for a totally lousy album opener. It should've ENDED one of the sides (except side 4..."Never Forget" is a classic album closer), not been the lead-off track. Christine HAD the most logical opening track for the album..."Honey Hi"...it would've changed the whole feel of the album...made it a "lighter" album. With "Over & Over" as the opener, it sets up the album to be just WAY too "dark".

I have a feeling that Lindsey didn't want a "lighter album".

By the way, I agree about "Over And Over" being better live than the album version. Every live version I've ever heard is fantastic.

Definitely. It was among the highlights in every concert it was included. And it was always intriguingly different, in some aspect.

It always has seemed to come down to "what Lindsey wants", doesn't it?
