Song of the Day: 'Pulling Mussels (From the Shell)' by Squeeze


Hard to imagine a better pop single than this Difford-Tilbrook gem, even if it was ignored in America and only peaked at No. 44 in the U.K. And I always thought the British were so much wiser than us musically speaking.

This is my all-time favorite Squeeze song. I wish this one was as well known as "Tempted" or "Black Coffee in Bed" because most people look cross-eyed at me when I mention it.

"Singles 45s and Under" is one of those albums that I have a physical reaction to. It violently throws me back to 80s summers, poolside at my first apartment. (In a good way, I mean.)
