"Only When You Leave"... why is this evoking the image of Cory Haim combing his hair, giving his reflection the thumbs up, then jumping into his dad's convertible and driving off to school?

"Highly Strung" is surprisingly okay compared to the other songs I've heard so far, which means it's only slightly embarrassing sounding
oh wait I just got to the chorus, never mind

Funnily enough, I remember my mother telling a story about meeting Rachman(notorious slum landlord)'s wife in the laundromat, she was full of sob story about how tough her life was now, scrimping etc now her husb was in jail etc. Then the Rolls Royce came and picked her and her laundry up...
