You're thinking of Back in NYC which precedes Hairless Heart, but includes a reference to a "fluffy heart" (where the name for HH comes from). But yeah, Back in NYC is AWESOME.

Correct, and I always forget that...because IIIIIIII don't care....WHO I HIT! No you're only...as strong...yes you're only...as strong...as the weakest link...in the chain! WinkCool
I got into trouble for playing "Back in NYC" in a school music lesson once, just because he says "I'm not full of sh*t". The same teacher also stopped us playing "Squeeze Box" by The Who midway through the first verse.

"The Waiting Room" without doubt. It's the most experimental, and one of my favourite parts of the album.

Broadway Melody is not even mostly instrumental. It has lyrics throughout.

Right you are! I was listening to another track when I typed in the wrong name! Je m'excuse!


Actually Windshield's lyrics and Broadway's lyrics are separated by a great instrumental break, but it's not clear to which track it should be attributed. I always assumed it was part of Broadway based on the vinyl track space on the vinyl I had bought back then, but apparently the flow seems reversed in recent years

Yeah, both were written to allowThe Gabe to slide in and out of his Slipperman suit on stage, but the former is truly daring StarClapStarClap(Genesis never went that far again) while the latter is an absolute boreSleepy.

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Yep. I was going to say how can that be since Hairless Heart is instrumental.  Wink

Whenever I listen to TLLDoB, I ALWAYS skip over The Waiting Room. I find it a complete bore and a total waste of time and space.

I know a lot of people hate it, but Silent Sorrow in Empty Boats is my choice, and one of the most hauntingly beautiful songs the band has ever done!
