Man oh man, is "Between A Man And A Woman" that bad?  I find it hard
to believe it would top someone's worst list.  It's one song I listen
to often still. A gorgeous song--everything from the singing to the
strings to the drums...  It's one reason why TSW is my favorite album.
For me, it tops "Hounds Of Love" despite the "Ninth Wave."  But it's
always fun to discuss favorite and least favorite songs.  What makes
people interesting are individual tastes.  Well, give the song a few
more listens.  It actually took me three years to appreciate it, and
now, it's one of my top five!!!

Sincerely,

PS  Your "Lionheart" bit above is too funny!
