Yes, it`s the ballads he`s best at. He has a very unique, powerful voice, that really shines through in the more slow songs. His ego is justified wink

I`m glad so many of you know the song biggrin

You're top man on scene
You don't think life comes in between
But yet she's just seventeen
She feels that she's a worldly girl
But man you've been around the world
She's just some worried Daddy's pearl

Even there's nothing I can say
To cheating your nature anyway
Let her down easy
Her heart is on a dime
Let her down easy
You'll grow up in time



In her strawberry eyes
The way she sees you signifies that
She's susceptible to your velvet lies
But if you must lay her down may a
butterscotch glow be her dressing gown,
Please do not lead her on when you leave town

Even there's nothing I can say
To cheating your nature anyway
Let her down easy
Her heart is on a dime
Let her down easy
You'll grow up in time

She's a woman now
With a daughter to make her proud
In her crayon world of paper clouds
She still remembers you
The first boy that she gave it to
And she laughs at how little that she knew

Even though there's nothing I can say
Let her down easy
Her heart is on a dime
Let her down easy
You'll grow up in time

I love Let Her Down Easy, it's an amazing closer to one of my all time favorite albums. But It's Been Said is his best ballad IMHO. That song blows me away.

the whole album is fantastic, though the so called 'part II reconcilliation' (track 10 onwards) is especially great. i don't know why he's still not huge, his talent is for sure.

He`s gotten much more experimental, i think most people just don`t get him...
Personally, there`s some of his songs i don`t like at all, like "she kissed me" disbelief

'vibrator' was great aswell. i'll admit i lost touch a bit myself when the whole sananda thing started. I've just dug out 'neither fish nor flesh', i know it bombed when it came out but i love it. great album. ahead of it's time.

and there's nothing wrong with 'She kissed Me'. wink
