And this is not the Duvel I am drinking right now.... I know that I am as fresh as a dryer sheet here on Fb.net, but in my humble opinion, I really can't help but think that this song could have fallen right off of a John Lennon LP. Alright, I am ready for the verbal abuse that will probably ensue.

Nope, not a fan of that one. I'll vote it off the survivor threads right after Seven Days.
Raider Man, now that's a great song.

Of course when you write some very personal lyrics like a confession to your psy, using a mid tempo piano chords progression going from major to minor, AND put some phil spectorish backing vocals...
...it DOES feel lennonian. |

I would have to say shades of 'Jealous Guy'. |

IMO it's The Real El Rey that sounds most like Everytime I Go Round Here.

Great song. Very classy. Took me a while to enjoy it, though.

I'd say 'Fast Man' is on a par with 'Seven Days' as the best song on the whole album.

| Fast Man is one of the few songs on the album that I liked straight from the off. Definitely one of the top 5 songs on the album. |

A superb song indeed, but only if your down with Frank's falsetto.

| This is my favourite tune on the album.. His falsetto is really starting to come together for sure, or maybe this song actually suits it well. Well done. |

I havent been to the forum since I got my copy of FMRM, and I came today to specifically start a thread about the greatness of Fastman, and lo and behold, there already is one.
Great tune that I can't get out of my head. 7 days is another great, but, Fastman is #1 for me right now. |
