I get a kick when I see that people who have praised Lily (which IS very good) have complained about Rocket Man being "one of the two or three worst things she has ever allowed to be released". I would challenge you to do this...make a cassette tape. Record Rocket Man, and pause the tape just before the the fade (when Kate is singing her ahh, ahh, ahh's). Now start Lily, but don't take the tape off of pause until after the music begins (about 25 seconds in, I think). When you are finished, run the tape back and listen to it, the transition will be so smooth that you will almost miss it. In fact, I am recommending (Kate are you listening?) a Rocket Man/Lily medley when she appears on Letterman or SNL. Well, I can wish. Also, I swear, if you'll turn the volume up on Lily during the "prayer", in the background you can hear a whiny, tinny voice saying something like "Will you let me finish? You've been talking for 20 seconds, do I get to say anything". ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? Let's see, how do these fancy sigs work? ? ?
