The highest form of knowledge is empathy, for it requires us to suspend our egos and live in another's world. It requires profound, purpose‐larger‐than‐the‐self kind of understanding.

'Love Affair with Life', which was the 'B' side to Sade's first release 'Your Love is King' - much prefer it to the 'A' side and one of her all time best songs

"I Am The Walrus"
One of the great B-Sides of all time.
A-side: "Hello, Goodbye"
The song was banned by the BBC for the line "Boy, you've been a naughty girl, you let your knickers down".
