I could have picked pretty much any track off “Still Waters Run Deep”. It is objectively a superb album. Reasons? Levi Stubbs sings the shit out of every song on there. It has touches of psychedelia (the guitar at the start of 'Bring Me Together', for one) without being faddish. And it has an uncountable number of great little moments that make you want to listen to it over and over again. In this song alone, Levi's exhortation to “sing it for me” and the repeating string pattern at the end are the perfect mix of rough and smooth. Wonderful.
