Immediately you can see that this was one of the songs that was going to be used for the rock opera, but instead becomes one of the most recognizable and best tracks on this album full of classics.
It's a song with lots of great individual musicianship, which can be heard in the drums, the guitar, the piano, and has some great bass that is more difficult to hear.
The song is beautiful satire because it dissects what the belief of a song should be while sounding heartfelt.
