I think I drove my mom to the hospital to see my step great grandfather who had just had a hernia operation. Or she drove and I got to go back out to the car after the perfunctories, which is where I heard this pretty much perfect pop song for the first time. (And I mean that the poetry is right on, meaning the ambiguity wins.)
Don’t neglect that baseline, or the organ fills that crack me up every time. Sometimes music makes me laugh. I know: McCaffrey, you’re weird.
Absolutely. So over the top, and so perfect there. I smile the same way on Ann Peebles’ I’m Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down, which is kind of an answer song.
