Appears On (Mixes): Maybe Better You Should Hold Me Close Than Understand: The Best Of Thomas Dolby

Song Notes: This is another of my all-time favorite songs. Like with "Leipzig" there's a little bit of that sense of Wanderlust, although it's a bit more of the tail end of that. There's some really great lines in here, like the "and I'm drawn out like a moth"/"worn out like a plot" lines. The first version of this song I'd heard was an extended mix on my vinyl copy of Blinded By Science, which was actually pretty skippy. It was such a good song, though, that I even loved it with the skips. Luckily, though, I shortly afterward bought a non-skipping version of this song. -Rev. Syung Myung Me
