I think I like the Greg Laslow version, it's a little more upbeat.

I can't believe I gave this a "2" last time. I must have been on Morphine. It's definitely a -1.

This song is sooo freaking good for the ears, and heart, and soul, I must beg to differ with you on this point. |

Yup, that was my first thought when I first heard the vocal - I had to get up and check my streaming player display to see if it was Leonard. |

I'll probably be playing this song for my daughter in about 15 years (if she hasn't killed me yet).

well....on the album this track was perfectly making sense imo - it was a nicely calm break AND (sort of) the intro to thursday. which is is with "the beloved 2 string subsonic bass and that slutty sax" :-)

He was never very forthcoming with interviewers about his personal life. |
