Definitely not IJNYM's moment indeed... I still have no idea why some didn't like it, but all the remaining songs are great so I won't complain.
01 In The Time Of My Ruin
02 Down To You 03 Highway To Lowdown 04 Kiss My Ring 05 My Terrible Ways 06 Fitzgerald 07 Elijah
08 It's Just Not Your Moment 09 The Real El Rey
10 Where The Wind Is Going 11 Holland Town 12 Sad Old World 13 Don't Cry That Way
14 Fare Thee Well

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.

So, how's that crack thing doin?
There's really no good reason for Don't Cry That Way to be in the top 5...

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

The Real El Rey
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.

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.

Sure, but that's just a fad. Crack's here to stay.
I don't see what the song's merit's are, I guess. OK, vocal delivery is nice, but I suppose that's not enough for me...

I must admit that the five remaining songs are my five favorites on disc 2. |

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

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

A song about drinking yourself into a stupor is sweet? |

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.

I interpret it more as a life thrown away, not a sweet celebration. "Oh, Fitzy".
But that's art; to each their own intrepretation.

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.

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.
