Advantages: Fantastic entertainment, and some real good guitar solos to boot Disadvantages: They over-layer some of the songs, thus losing them in production
...over ethereal voices. The "Ga Ga Ga" idea was based around the sound the piano makes, but when the band changed their minds they decided they liked the title so much they'd keep it on as the name of the record itself.

An oddly structured song; after two verses and two choruses, a short interlude and a repeat of the chorus. Is the song coming to an end? Na-ah. The band break down into a massive jam with new chord progressions, changes of tempo, rhythm and instrumentation until you can't remember how the tune started.

2. The Ghost Of You Lingers: At the other end of the spectrum, here's ...
