'Polka dot underwear' is mine, too. I actually call that song 'The Underwear Song', thanks to that line. I also like Uncle Toad Said, 'when Uncle Toad spoke it was not a pretty sight'.

Well said, James...Endless Wire seems like a 'divorce-record', filled with alot of angst; like Clapton's Layla. What's funny is Gord is always singing about the women in his life leaving him; I don't...
