I agree! "Bust a Move" from that cd gets stuck in my head for days -- a
song I think is either about how uncool it is to unabashedly love the
Beatles, or how uncool it is to dance, or possibly both ("How was I to
know / that every time I twist & shout / I was losing to myself"), but
there are a lot of wonderful tracks on "Polaroid." It's well worth picking
up, even if you have to join the fan club to do it.
