I had to take a good listen to this record since it's been a while I've done it. Gone Troppo has always been my least favourite Harrison record but it was actually better that I remembered. http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubb/smilies/images/icons/smile.gif

Anyway, I'll go with Kat this time and say:

"Baby Don't Run Away"

------------------
Past is gone, thou canst not that recall
Future is not, may not be at all
Present is, improve the flying hour
Present only is within thy power.

Circles is possibly George's worst song. Yet Mystical One is one of his best. I can't see why that should be voted off.
