In either case I think infallible is much better.
Okay, listen. I goddamn LOVE Infallible. I have a feeling I'll be one of this boards biggest champions of the song. But what you're saying here... just... just shut up. No, no Stip!

SHUT. UP.

I keep listening to this song to see what i'm missing. I think this is getting bonus points for being old and first. I mean, it's a nice enough song, but I can't imagine myself ever really caring about this outside of a time capsule kinda way

how this ended up number 57 on a top songs of all time list is beyond me.

i hope they make a video of everyone skipping through a field. Maybe BoB is at the other end, waiting to give them each a hug and a sporty pat on the butt.

Procol Harum, 'A Whiter Shade of Pale.' I pointed out a similarity in Ed's chorus melody, as well as the general feel of it, although so few people have agreed we could probably just call it a new RM meme.

Not that it matters or should sway your own opinion in any way, it's just an interesting fact that maybe you'd like to know, but Paul McCartney has called it the best song ever written.

also Paul McCartney is pretty old, and I don't trust the opinions of anyone older than whatever Eddie Vedder happens to be at the time
