Sorry I'm late again, but this time I have a kickass excuse. Round closed.

Nor did I, or would I, call it a celebration. But the singer is undoubtedly fond of Fitzy -- you can get that from just the nickname Fitzy -- and the way he sings it is tender. Despite the sad tale, the song makes me smile. So does "Sing for Joy," for that matter. But yeah, to each his own interpretation.

It's certainly that as well, and I wouldn't call it a celebration either, but there's certainly something to this man besides the drinking and lack of hygiene. I suppose that's what I see in the song.


"Now you're officially my woman. Kudos. I can't say I don't envy you."
darwin Posted - 10/04/2006 : 14:08:02
I interpret it more as a life thrown away, not a sweet celebration. "Oh, Fitzy".

But that's art; to each their own intrepretation.

Cult_Of_Frank Posted - 10/04/2006 : 14:00:32
Yes indeed it is.


"Now you're officially my woman. Kudos. I can't say I don't envy you."

The song's not about drinking yourself into a stupor. It's about loving a man who did that, because he has a million other qualities worth remembering.

A song about drinking yourself into a stupor is sweet?

Lyrically, it's just about the sweetest damn song ever. Except for Fitzgerald. That's sweeter.

Did you notice the 4 "LA Sessions" tracks were all in the top 6?
Why doesn't Frank move back to LA?

In The Time of My Ruin

I must admit that the five remaining songs are my five favorites on disc 2.
Cult_Of_Frank Posted - 10/03/2006 : 18:18:04
Sure, but that's just a fad. Crack's here to stay.

speedy_m Posted - 10/03/2006 : 15:58:36
It's at least the 3rd best song on disc two, if not the second. And I prefer meth, it's so hot right now.

I just got back from listening to Don't Cry That Way three times in a row in the car. Pure beauty. Just pure. If I were a country singer I'd be all over it. It would do great on their single charts and on the country video channels. Maybe that's why some folks don't like it, but I'm tellin' ya'll: it's a great song that features a certain kind of vocal Frank about as well as it gets.

Sure there is. It's the best song on the album.

I can't vote anymore. These five songs and My Terrible Ways are the best six on all of Fast Man Raider Man. As Kramer said on the Seinfeld episode called The Contest, I'm out.
