The 30-Day Song Selection Spectacular: #11, A Song That Seems Incredibly Deep No Matter How Many Times You Hear It

B-side: OK, this is about two sisters chastising a third sister for quitting the family act. But those harmonies make it sound like something way more cosmic is brewing.

The Roches, “Hammond Song”
