Real Hits

About a year ago I wrote HERE about how I Melt with You, while never a real "hit" had somehow become known by everybody in the world. And it occurred to me that Ball and Chain is another example of such a song. Wasn't a "hit" like whatever the next steaming pile Metallica will put out, but you could ask a housecat that's been in prison for 30 years and he somehow knows the song. "Ball and Chain? Oh yeah, sliiiiice. Meow."

Note: Story of My Life is a better song

Great song and album through and through, but I prefer When She Begins from Somewhere Between even more.
