Crazy Mary vs. Present Tense

Post by **stip** » Mon April 05, 2021 12:49 am

This is pretty close. But Present Tense, I think

Damn.

Still PT for me.

As I said last round, I love Present Tense. This is a no-brainer for me.

Boom single-handedly ruined Crazy Mary for me.

This one is a toss up. Going with PT for now. We'll see if I change my mind tomorrow.

Joe, for me, please stay with Present Tense. I really do love that song.

PT is great but when Ed makes me care emotionally for this Mary lady when he sings

“One night thunder cracked
Mercy backed outside her window sill
Dreamed I was flying high above the trees
Over the hills
Looked down into the house of Mary
Bare bulb hung, newspaper-covered walls
And Mary rising above it all“

Yeah that’s the stuff right there

Wow. I never knew that's what he said there

I like playing and singing this song. I can't even remember what I would mumble there...bare bone spone I think

Crazy Mary is wonderful. It was great when I first heard it and still great today. PT comes and goes.

Gotta go Crazy Mary ... I remember "discovering" it at the Quonset Hut in Akron. Like, "Dude, there's a Pearl Jam song on this CD that I've never heard of!!!"

Really, this is a vote for a used CD store that doesn't exist anymore.
