Paul Simon - The Boy In The Bubble (WEA)

A strange one this. Paul Simon sings about lasers in the jungle, babies with baboons' hearts, and magical medicine over a fuzzy accordion melody. One can only presume that either he's flipped his lid or he's trying to convey some deep and meaningful message about technology or something. Anyway, this is nowhere near as endearingly quirky as "You Can Call Me Al" and it'll need a pretty snappy video to liven it up, that's for sure. (Ro Newton, Smash Hits, November 19, 1986)
