Greatest Songs Never To Be Sung By Corey Feldman: TA-DAH! (11)
Track 11/”Might Tell You Tonight”/11 Days Remain
The NYT—the source any true music-lover goes to for opinions of pop music—says of the song it is a low point, a “tepid balad.” It’s one of my favorites. Maybe it’s because when I close my eyes and think about someone nervously thinking of telling me that, “you should stay all my life,” the synth-strings are exactly what I hear. Maybe it’s also because just like in the song, I hear Jake Shears saying those words. One day.
The song defines love in terms of toothbrush usage and storage, a beautiful idiosyncrasy I’ll always be a fan of and have been ever since No Doubt’s “Bathwater.”
Dancy-ness: 7.5—it’s not a discotastic highlight, but when you consider awkward eighth grade slow dancing, it’s totally dancy.
