Day 109: April 19: Prince of Tides

"How can you tell me how it used to be when there's nothin' left to see."

Throwaway Buffett tune that James sings backup on.  It's a bit pretentious and toward the end of the listenable Buffett era.  There's some catchiness to it though and it's worth a listen but it's far from classic Buffett.


The end of that last song samples Save the Last Dance For Me.  I heard Smokey Robinson say that that song is about a man in a wheelchair at his wedding.  He sees his new bride dancing with all these men while he sits and waits.  It's beautiful.
