I think "Silly Love Songs" is great. The seeming banality of the song is 
obviously deliberate, a response to criticisms of the banality of his 
""silly love songs."  Then eventually he gets to some nice ear candy vocal 
derring do, stretching out more than you usually get to do in a number one 
single, then at the end he snaps back; "What's wrong with that?"  Its 
metatextual.  Every time I hear it, I sort of feel like, "point taken."

But my favorite song on that record is "Beware My Love."
