To be honest I don't think Song and Dance is one of the strongest songs on FD (which I think is definitely one of the
best Joke albums). That 2-note part in the middle that sounds like a kazoo playing, when Jaz sings "spit hit the stick"--what the hell is that?
I vote for The Hum as the surprise opener!
