Hmmm.  I've said for years that Perfect Water was the only
real BOC song on that album **, and if it wasn't a couple of
lines at the beginning (including that bizarre, jarring
Cousteau reference) I would love it.  I love Buck's guitar
work on that one, and *most* of the lyrics are great.

** I really like White Flags, but it's just not my idea of a
BOC song.

(And yes, I am catching up on a backlog of mail that
stretches back to the beginning of the year...)
