The best track from 69 Love Songs. The line about music ('some of it is transcendental, some of it is really dumb') could be applied to whole album, which is what makes it so brilliant!

I like this cover. Almost as good as Peter Gabriel.

#ThisWeekIsForLovers #Love Singer Stephin Merritt came up with the crazy idea of writing 100 new love songs for a 4CD album release ...just to let the world know 'he is here' Understandably, he began to dry up with ideas around the 60 song mark and decided instead to make it a 69 song 3CD set instead , saying that the number 69 was more appropriate for the theme of love anyway...........what on Earth was he on about? Someone explain...(I've led a sheltered life, y'know...) ;-)   13
