[Mael-list] getting "used to" sparks songs

[popshifter]

I find that several of my favorite Sparks tunes are the ones that take
several listens for me to "get." For example, I never really cared much for
"Underground" and then one day, BAM! It was suddenly amazing. Ditto for "As
I Sit Down to Play The Organ," "Change," "Equator," and "La Dolce Vita."
