Musically, I...Me again, the "Junk" lover. Musically, I'm just not sophisticated enough to understand what people mean when they say "Junk" isn't "finished." To me, it's a lovely song with an ahead-of-its-time message. Given its theme -- letting go of our need for so much stuff -- the song's construction seems just right.

I thought this song was intended to be a parody of Bob Dylan's song "John Wesley Harding"?<br /><br />My final 2 cents: I love Paul's "Junk." (Ok, that could have multiple meanings, but I mean the song.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594252593945843033.post-90457815305951118532009-08-27T20:02:27.306-04:002009-08-27T20:02:27.306-04:00No way that it makes my top 20 either.

Well, that's what this song does. I love this song, and i think you're missing it. <br /><br />First, i think the lyrics are great. Very witty. Take: "Her name was McGill, she called herself Lil, but everyone knew her as Nancy." What a great way to say she was a prostitute.
