The end is near... counting down my #FinalJams. In probably my top three all-time favourites this. I just adore it.

Continuing the tour of songs in a brief countdown (count up?) to my hundredth jam that – depending on my mood at the time, how long since I last ate, when I last slept and my blood alcohol level – I could and probably have made a strong argument for being 'my favourite of all time'... whatever that really means. I love everything about this song, and I consider it the finest moment of an extraordinary band.
