Lyle Lovett’s early-90s take on the Tammy Wynette country standard “Stand By Your Man” grabbed attention because he didn’t change any of the words, which was a gutsy thing to do then, especially in country music. Today, times have changed, but his take holds up because he sang the absolute hell out of it; it’s a fantastic rendition, gender politics be damned. 
The transgender shading was fitting, however, because it’s from the soundtrack of The Crying Game, and the B-Side of this pretty Jukebox-Only 45 is Boy George’s take on that movie’s title track.

A scorpion wants to cross a river, but he can't swim. He goes to the frog, who can, and asks for a ride. The frog says: "If I give you a ride on my back, you'll go and sting me" The scorpion replies: "It would not be in my interest to sting you since as I'll be on your back we both would drown" The frog thinks about this logic for a while and accepts the deal. Takes the scorpion on his back. Braves the waters. Halfway over feels a burning spear in his side and realizes the scorpion has stung him after all. And as they both sink beneath the waves a frog cries out: "Why did you sting me, Mr. Scorpion? For now we both will drown" The scorpion replies: "I can't help it, it's in my nature, a scorpion does what is in its nature”! أراد العقرب أن يعبُر نهراً، لكنه لا يستطيع السباحة، فذهب إلى الضفدع الذي يستطيع. وطلب منه إيصاله، قال الضفدع: ”إذا أوصلتك على ظهري؛ فستلسعني“، أجاب العقرب: ”لن يكون من مصلحتي أن ألسعك،بماأننيسأكونعلىظهرك،فسنغرقكلانا“.فّكرالضفدعفي منطقه لبرهة وقبل الصفقة. أخذ العقرب على ظهره، ونزل إلى المياه، وفي منتصف الطريق إلى الطرف الآخر، شعر برمح لاذع في جنبه، وأدرك أن العقرب قد لسعه على الرغم من كل شيء، وبينما كان كلاهما يغرقان تحت الأمواج، صرخ الضفدع: ”لماذا لسعتني أيها السيد عقرب؟ سنغرق كلانا الآن“، أجاب العقرب: ”ليس في يدي حيلة، هذا طبعي، يتصرف العقرب حسب طبعه“!

No, I never saw it and yes I know about it. Both versions of the song are great - the Pet Shop Boys produced the Boy George one... #music #cd #thecryinggame #firsttherearekisses https://www.instagram.com/p/CBnVWgJF2vH/?igshid=qtit2kya3nxx
