1. The riff is the same as "Jumpin' Jack Flash" by the Rolling Stones. There must be a great deal written about that somewhere but I don't care to look in this instance.
2. It's one of those songs whose chorus quite outshines the verses: "Now I'm calling all citizens, / From all over the world / This is Captain America calling. / I bailed you out when you were down on your knees / So will you catch me, now I'm falling?" They sing this in a beautiful way.
3. It's a bit too timely for comfort of course.
4. There is a
longeur of 30 seconds from 2:59 to 3:29 which I find sort of inert and even a bit demanding (bad combination,
inert and demanding), with its foursquare thud.
And they're both like Mr. Soul, which I think came first?
ReplyDeleteOh my, that's fricking right.
