i like yr blogname and know the reference -Gang a Bong- what a strange last element of a hitsong!
….years ago pre-google the line came into my head outa context & i actually called wfmu to see if any jocks knew where it was from….they thought they did but didnt.
+ shared tastes —-early Eno-VU–Badfinger? Fuggedaboudittt!!
i also agree re I’LL BE THE ONE as perfect-nearly cut [too short?], NO MATTER WHAT = pure pop genius achieved…. B-finger’s backing vocals/best songs are among Pop’s BEST
see ya round!
