Marrying Kind-If I Was The Man in Ur Life

Always saw these as the highlight of Musicology. Damn, still sounds good in 2020.

(also, not for nothing, but I think I didnt give Illusion Coma Pimp and Circumstance enough credit. I think its misplaced as the 2nd track but have a new appreciation for this one........that said Life of the Party is just the worst).

A really good two song punch on that album. Def a highlight for me too.

Has a late 70's songster almost Bllly Joel vibe to me, with tons of Prince-brand soul.

See, I always though Illusion, Coma, Pimp and Circumstance was the highlight...but - yes, yes and no: it was the worst until Everybody Loves Me came out...then it became second worst. lol

Man in your life:
Absolutely love it, but not a fan of the ending.
The ending doesn't fit right. It reminds me of something you would hear him play live to abruptly end a song

Cant believe my purple psychedelic pimp slap pimp2

And I descend from grace, In arms of undertow
I will take my place, In the great below

I didn't care much for those songs when Musicology was released but they have grown on me over the years. I agree about Life of the Party, it's a horrible song.

Agreed. Great one two combo. Overall, album better than hype backlash suggested.
