As for Come, I like this song because I think it is very progressive and I particularly like the way he juxtaposes the heavy metal esq. guitar work and the softer parts of the song. Having said that, I do not care all that much for the way the lyrics are delivered because I do not in general care for voice manilpulation like this or really in any other way. But, LB seems to love it as he uses it all over SYW and has repeatedly used it in the past. All in all, I would give LB an A+ for the concept of Come and a C- for its ability to add in any significant way to a pop record like Say You Will.

Oh, I so wish that I felt the same way as you and Nancy do about this song. I like most of his songs on Go Insane...or the songs that were considered envelope pushers at that time. I'm just finding it hard to appreciate this particular song for what it is. I'm really trying.

Overall, it's difficult to choose between Say You Will and Tusk. I like both albums for different reasons. Tusk will always be timeless. I guess we'll have to wait another 30 years to see how well Say You Will holds up.
