Song 257 (The Guess Who--"Laughing")

In my opinion one of the best and most under rated songwriting duos in recent history is Randy Bachman and Burton Cummings. A lot of the music that they collaborated on has become iconic; this is one of those songs. The subject matter of the song is about a jilted love and how jilter took pleasure in hurting the other and how the hurt lover is coping with it. Every aspect of this song really comes together incredibly; the music really compliments the vocals and adds emotion to them in the verses. I love how the song builds up and releases in the chorus.
