The newly-revived Whigs, who used to do this sort of thing all the time in the 1990s with Prince, TLC and New Order songs, busted out this Frank Ocean heart-breaker on their latest tour before formalizing it here with a studio recording. Greg Dulli and perpetually underrated guitarist Rick McCollum know exactly how to execute it, turning Ocean’s gauzy ballad into high-octane, Stones-y rock, complete with bird song, melodramatic strings and a gaudy-yet-appropriate guitar solo. A groove armada.

“More Than a Feeling”

Boston mastermind Tom Scholz was as surprised by anyone when he sent his unsolicited demo to record labels and got back a positive response. Scholz said, “I couldn’t believe it. Nobody knew who we were, so I wouldn’t even say we were struggling. It was groveling.” Part of the credit for the interest must go to the anthemic rock number "More Than a Feeling." Inspired by the Left Banke's 1966 hit "Walk Away Renee," Scholz worked on the song for five years in his basement studio before it was released on this album.
