...album begins with “Anala,” an old-school pop song, whose percussion section is comprised of muted clapping, snare rolls, and a bassy vocal line (“um bau bau, um bau”) provided by Khan. Floating above is Sultan’s voice, empathetically harmonizing with “ooh-aah” and very simple lyrics about girl troubles. The lighthearted pop sound continues through to the second and title track. It ups the fun notch by incorporating tambourines, seagulls, a distorted, power-chord based guitar backbone behind a melodic, single...

...little margin for error along the way. Between those two votes will be weeks of deliberations over scores of amendments, many of which will be designed more to produce 30-second attack ads than to influence the actual shape of the legislation. There will come the arguments that Pelosi, whose office gives her far greater command of the floor, successfully kept out of a House debate that lasted a mere 12 hours: Will a government-run public option be among the choices offered to the uninsured? Should individuals be required to buy health insurance, and businesses to provide...
