Maybe it's because Richard writes fabulous, intelligent, songs, but he doesn't give a shit about a hook. Some of his tunes <i>have</i> got great hooks, but he treats them like accidents. Also, he does have a fairly strong accent, which maybe makes it a little hard for Merkins to follow.

I dunno. The guy's a global treasure. I guess I like the fact that you can still see him in a medium-sized venue.
