If it's Country, it's Country filtered through the sieve of Brill Building Pop production technique. It's Country enveloped in a Wall of Sound. From the lush, romantic strings to the Morse Code of the keyboards and a Fender guitar solo that hits Echorichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02853063796135973187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-704562197692201471.post-77853929526521560782018-06-11T22:28:10.907+01:002018-06-11T22:28:10.907+01:00The Uxbridge Arms, it was a great little boozer.

It’s his favorite song. I have no problem with the top two. I won’t quibble with certain songs that may or may not be considered pop. My biggest beefs are with Madonna (although I do like her in general) and the Jackson 5. Someone suggested Waterloo Sunset, and that would be in my 10 as well.
