It's direct and it makes its point without noodling and rambling and meandering all over the place?

Well, I think that's actually an admirable quality, though others mileage may differ.

As for it being "simple"... "Stand" is actually more harmonically sophisticated than "Luv N Haight," and it's got some cool rhythmic shifts too. The "funky" part of "Stand" goes harder than "Luv N Haight," and if you don't realize how innovative it was to switch genres that way *in the middle of the same song* you need to take a better look at what was standard at the time that song was recorded.

Let's not even get to the poetry of the lyrics...

Of course... preferences are preferences. You prefer "Lub N Haight" to "Stand." Nothing wrong with that. But I think your dismissal of "Stand" is unfair and pretty wrongheaded too.
