Absolutely au contraire! "Because the Night" (did Bob Seeger write 
it?) and "Dancin Barefoot" (ooh, play on heroine vs. heroin, like 
wow)  are almost as bad as paunchy B.Springthing's "Fire." Give me 
the attitude and fresh new sound of Horses and Radio Ethiopia. "I 
don't give a fuckin shit; hope I die because of it. My generation. My 
generation, baby!" (P.Smith singin My Gen.)
