...that's a nice bonus to a song...but it means NOTHING to a song's greatness...

a man's world
respect
uptight
hey jude
my adidas
ain't no half steppin
ladies first
i will always love you
etc etc...

these are all GREAT songs, and their strength isn't in their versatility(sp?), it's in their timelessness, message (for some) and universal impact...i like "step" but other than dancing it has no rest value, much less elevator music (who writes to do that anyway (money aside)??)...so it's not even that versatile...and for every great song R does, he has 1o stupid ones

btw...R will never top "untitled" (unless you count 'i believe i can fly').....and there are more...
