...price fool you: "Datamatch" means business. I had the privilege of watching my roommate struggle not only to answer but simply to interpret the reasoning behind the "Datamatch" questionaire...

He writes different ways for different people." His work is sometimes slight and sentimental, but over the years, his songcraft has grown stronger. The Day's lyrics have a solid moral core: the family unit is revered, love comes with respect, and men do a lot of crying. "Done 'bout run out of tears," he coos on Talk to Me, a pop-soul-blues number featuring Clapton...
