John Caleが脱退した3作目。綺麗な曲が揃っている良い作品ですが、やはり4枚のアルバムでは一番見劣りがするかなと。この時期のMGMのカンパニー・スリーヴについては疎いので、これがオリジナルに付属していたインナー・スリーヴかどうかは分かりません。

"Candy Says"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFY5ko4sAyI

Candy says I've come to hate my body
And all that it requires in this world
Candy says I'd like to know completely
What others so discretely talk about

I'm gonna watch the blue birds fly over my shoulder
I'm gonna watch them pass me by
Maybe when I'm older
What do you think I'd see
If I could walk away from me

Candy says I hate the quiet places
That cause the smallest taste of what will be
Candy says I hate the big decisions
That cause endless revisions in my mind

I'm gonna watch the blue birds fly over my shoulder
I'm gonna watch them pass me by
Maybe when I'm older
What do you think I'd see
If I could walk away from me

今でいうところのLGBTの悩みの歌だと思うのですが、よく分かりません。
綺麗な曲ですよね。
