the last part of this song may well be the best thing he has ever written
of course that is up for debate!

but it is to me , the best expression of love put to music.

fav line: " wise is the tongue, wet of perfect thought"

I love this song for the way he sings the word "juxtaposed." Nobody sings the word "juxtaposed" like Frank Black.

Used to like it a lot, less so these days but that's probably because I played the hell out of it back in the day. Still a great song, obviously.

Sir Rockaby and Calistan are probably the two TOTY songs that I'll never ever tire of, not even once in a while.

All of me does.

A few tracks don't agree with my left elbow, but Speedy isn't one.

He played it live in a November '98 show at the now-defunct Fabulous Foothill in Long Beach, CA with the Catholics. It was bliss.

Pretty chilled tempo. I'm sure there's a Catholic version or two out there somewhere too

The whole romaunt section of the song is superb. Also one of my favourites although the first couple times I listened to Teenager I remember thinking it was two songs (because I really liked the second part / "song" but wasn't a fan of the first). Now of course, I love it all.

My favourite FB song, including The Pixies. Amazing.
