I had to laugh at this quote - Love or Money a "little too busy"?  Has the
reporter heard The Last Time I Saw Richard?  Now there's a song with too
many words for the notes!  The funny thing is, it works - brilliantly, and
so does Love Or Money.

I agree, it's one of the highlights of MOA for me - I wish she'd put it on
an album, I'd love to hear a studio version of this song.
