I'm surprised and delighted by the love for "The Bleeding Heart Show"! Did it turn out to be a grower?

"I'm surprised and delighted by the love for "The Bleeding Heart Show"! Did it turn out to be a grower?"

It grew on me considerably when I saw the New P's perform a show-stopping version live at Maxwell's last year. I liked the song enough already, but hearing them perform it the way they did sealed my love. Amazing show.

Limiting myself to their covers:

1) When I Was a Baby (Donner Party)
2) Send Me a Postcard (Shocking Blue)
3) Throw Her Away and Get a New One (Sparks)

Too bad they haven't been doing any/many covers on the recent tour--as much as I love Carl and Dan's songs, they're SO good at it.

1) "Letter from an Occupant"
2) "My Slow Descent Into Alcoholism"
3) "These are the Fables"
That was really tough. I could've easily picked several others like "The Bones of an Idol", "Execution Day", "Mass Romantic" and "All for Swinging You Around". For my bonus track, though, I'll go with the following:
AC Newman "The Town Halo"
