I love to hear Another Saturday Night in concert.
I went with ASN eventhough Cuban Crime is more of a ballad. This was opposite of my reasoning on Daydreamin

The story in CCOP is why Another Saturday Night got my vote
We just had an attempted murder/successful suicide at the high school in our small community last week.....violent and painful things have a tendency to make me shy away...hence my dislike for this particular song.
The concert season that CCOP was in the set list Molly and I always went Oh no! Not again! when it played.
However, I see we are in the minority on this one....

I had a similiar experience Nutmeg with the Great Filling Station Holdup. I had a friend of mine who was shot and killed by a robber one evening as he tended register a liquor store down in NJ. Guy comes in, pulls out a gun and demands the money. My friend gives him the money and the bastard shots him anyway just because.
It took me years before I could actually listen to that song again. So I understand where you are coming from.
Anyways, my vote does go to the half woman, half child becuase it is an original piece of Jimmy's work. ASN is a great song live but I always think of Sam Cooke before I think of Jimmy's version.

There are some Jimmy lyrics that can be turn-offs at times.
