Today's Song: Womack & Womack "Teardrops (12" Extended)"
This song is so poignant it doesn't even need to try to be poignant. I prefer this beefed-up club version to the one on Womack & Womack's 1988 album, Conscience. The xx covered this a few years ago, but like most xx remakes and basically any cover that serves to de-R&B R&B, their version is, as the British say, pants. Womack & Womack's original remains largely forgotten, which is pantser.
