"will anything happen" bothers me a little, and feels, in general, like one of the less-essential traxxx.

That's why I chose I'm So Tired over Dear Prudence. Prudence is too pretty, and not nearly weird enough to be the essence of such a strange and schizophrenic record. Happiness is a Warm Gun is probably the most representative, but it got shot down early.

btw, do you think "heart of glass" is in the same league as "i feel love?" im unsure; IFL is better, im sure, but HOG is really sublime, if not as exciting.

"Fade Away and Radiate" is probably the only song on the album that gets worse with repeated listens.

I have a much stronger feeling about which one should stay than which one should go, but hell, let's just go ahead and knock out Sunday Girl.

Anyway I have removed the only one I can't instantly call to mind, which seems like a good way to proceed. I doubt "The Girl Is Mine" will last long but I think it's kind of endearing.

I was both genuinely curious to see what would win (I do think there's a good case to be made for at least half of the tracks here) and interested to see if the trend of someone killing the obvious choice early would continue.

Oh, and honestly, I think "Billie Jean" is a better single, but as essence, it's "Wanna Be Startin Something" all the way. Not JUST because of the latin-beat breakdown, but that helps.
