Comes Then Goes vs. Seven O'Clock vs. The Fixer

Three great songs.

Seven Oclock is the weakest of the three. I love the melody in the verses, and the lyrics in the chorus, the transitions between waking and dream states. But it's missing just something that stops it from pushing through into 5 star songs. Maybe just an editor. It's a touch too long

Same could be true of Comes then goes. I wonder how this would have sounded with the chorus just happening at the end as a capstone. The verses are pretty much all terrific, but the chorus drags a bit in a long song with nothing to grab onto.

The Fixer is a delight, and there's nothing like it in their catalog, still. It gets my vote.

Seven Oclock and its not even close

as much as i like Fixer, 7 o Clock is a wonderful mid tempo tune. I hope they do more of these in the future.

Seven O'Clock has really continued to open up for me over time. I love all three of these songs. Would love to see any of them advance. But I'll vote for 7oc for now.
