Mad Man Moon followed by Volcano are my fave songs off the album, but Entangled is cool because the instrumental break is drenched in mellotron Wink

Hmm

I thought this sounded familiar. Have a look at this thread. The wording of the original post is EXACTLY the same

I love all three songs you mentioned----used to love Ripples because of Steve's guitar part at the end---then Entangled because of the dreamy aspect of it and the big mellotron sound----finally settled on Mad Man Moon as perhaps my current fav of the three----but all 3 have a special magic.

Everyone??

I doubt it. There is certainly a lot of love for the track, but overall I wouldn't say there is any more love for it among fans overall than the other track you mention.

It's like saying why does everyone love potatoes? They're no better than turnips. It's all down to personal taste. It clearly doesn't chime as much with you personally as it may do with others. There's no mystery to it.

For me it is a classic, but I probably prefer Dance on a volcano, Los Endos, possibly even Squonk off that album, but the magic of Entangled for me is mainly in that incredible outro. Thenoverall song is very good, altough I think the lyrucs sound a little... awkward..Just my personal view.

Okay.

I love Entangled.

But can someone explain to me why everyone seems to worship it with such a passion?

I don't see how it's any more special than Ripples or Mad Mad Moon, so please somebody help me out Confused

I'm not a hater or anything, it's just I don't see the way a lot of people seem to do, some preferring it over even Watcher of the Skies. What's the huge appeal that I'm missing? What secret formula, and what other songs employ this formula to make themselves more appealing?
