World's Fair

Green tempted the hand of solo greatness via a wayward publishing deal with EMI and recording contract with SBK but achieved a modicum of songwriting success. He gives it another go on his own with "Sheryl Crow" based on a dream he had where the two shared friendly philosophical musings at a Starbucks. Who can't relate to the occasional celebrity fantasy that seems so real it's worth storytelling? She tells him, "I'm here cause I need time to do an average thing/ And get back to the inspiration that makes me sing." Green commands vocals, piano and acoustic guitar, which should earn trust at triple-A not to mention a warm-up spot on Crow's next tour, eh? Not since "Bette Davis Eyes" has homage been as spirited.
