I only just saw this, but I would have voted for Amoreena, as it totall yhits me at the beginning of Dog Day afternoon.
wouldn't have changed the results much, but just sayin'

yeah I would have gone with that too for the same reason, couldn't believe it was Elton John when i checked it out in the end credits

wow, the "Madman Across The Water" on the deluxe edition of this album is terrific! Mick Ronson on guitar! A nine minute epic! Is this what "November Rain" was going for?

oh I mentioned that earlier
yeah, this "Madman" wouldn't have fit in very well on Tumbleweed, I don't think: it's actually sorta heavy in parts, and would stick out. But it could have fit on side 2, maybe...although if I were to drop a song, maybe I'd drop "Son of Your Father" and it could fit there alright, a blast after "Country Comfort".

It's my favourite, but that'snot to say it's not spotty. I am interested to see what the others made of it when I took it to record club.
