I'm not saying that Don't Ask Why is necessarily any better than Soon or You Made Me Realise but recently when I've listened to this year's remastered version off the My Bloody Valentine ep's 1988-1991 compilation it seems like the perfect blend of narcotic, post-coital wooze, melody, distortion and noise. It is total MBV perfection.
Don't Ask Why
Their best track, I sometimes think. And certainly, in my opinion, their best Loveless era track. Wooze is a good word for it, whenever I'm describing this song I usually settle on mesh.
