My funny Valentine
(As played by Elvis Costello)
Richard Rodgers & Lorenz Hart
A simple bass line for a beautiful song. Be careful on the tempo and play deep.

| The critics are right when they pinpoint [this] song as one of the weakest links on the album, mainly because it shows signs of self-plagiarism (hmm, haven't we already met that bassline before? 'Demolition Man'? 'Driven To Tears'?), but they miss one thing: Sting's total self-dedication. It's obviously the most personal and one of the most deeply felt cuts on the album, and while it lacks an immediate hook, it's so disgustingly sincere I don't have the heart to condemn the song. Besides, shoot, I really dig the bassline. [George Starostin] | |
