I still think Something qualifies more as a ballad than Beautiful Ones. But like you said, to each their own.

I know that at least one other Orger than myself is as smitten with it and would agree with me that is NOT Tame (whom I do not know except maybe that she posts alot of heart emoticons)

Well technically so can "I wanna be your lover", "When Doves Cry", "Head", etc...but I don't think most people would.

No, no and no. But "Something..."; yes.

Or rather;

"Always blessings, never losses......"
