SFMSSS has got a beautifully executed languid quality to the verses and an impassioned soaring chorus.
In composition and execution both songs are totally top class.
I like the chorus in (Song For My) Sugar Spun Sister but that's it really, but I do think it's a better song than Bye Bye Badman. Not to say Doolittle is without it's weaker moments, despite being a stronger album in my view. Silver is certainly far from being one of my favourite Pixies songs.

I have no idea what you're on about now.

Suede - self-titled, Pulp - Different Class, The Auteurs - New Wave. Jus' sayin'.
