"Dear Michaelangelo" - The abrupt ending

I know there isn't one circulating, but does anyone know if this song was in a longer form and cut down for the album, because the ending is terrible editing.

confuse

Not bad editing. It's a somewhat interesting concept. The idea is that you have this song that is full of sound nad high paced new wave and then it cuts to some raw mpls funk.

First time I heard it I was like WHOA. I still get that from time to time, but Dear Michealangelo is my favorite Shiela song so it DOES kinda piss me off that it stops so suddenly.

Still it's nice to know, when our bodies wear out, we can get another

Same with me, I love the song, I know that's how it ends, but it IS a bad way to end a song, thus bad editing.

I didn't mean they did a balls-up on the editing by mistake, I just mean it was a bad way to end the song. smile

the ending sux, and then we get a WAYWAYWAY too long, overblown version of A Love Bizarre.

blemishes on an otherwise fantastic record. (and one that badly needs remastering).


anybody else think Bedtime Story is the bomb?

i mean, i like the song and all... but 4 minutes of it would be enough. i mean let's face it ... A Love Bizarre is a fairly repetitive, simplistic pop song. Yes it's cool, but... 12 minutes? sheesh. save it for the 12 inch.
