The other one that bugged me was the one where clapton gets shitfaced and knows his wife loves him because she'll take him home and make sure he's okay. How beautiful! It's sung the same way, with love oozing out of it's pores, so it's seen as respectful and loving. There are more, but it's the ones that pretend to be about love but don't really follow through that make me grump.

Well, that's overstating it, but still. UGH. Even the bloggers at the Seattle P-I agree. http://blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/thebigblog/archives/131943.asp

"Just reach out your hand..." Somehow it seemed pretty above-the sheets. Maybe a hand job. :) My Dad always hated the Extreme version because it sounded like the same guy on 2 tracks. He always called it "the Everly Brother." Naif that I am, I understood it like Mim did. “Just reach out your hand…” Somehow it seemed pretty above-the sheets. Maybe a hand job. :)
