Overplayed and Overrated

While listening to my Essential Neil Diamond collection CDs, I wondered why people love "Sweet Caroline" so much.  (Yes, I like Neil Diamond. Don't judge me!!) "Sweet Caroline" is one of the weaker Neil Diamond songs. Where's the love for "Cherry, Cherry" or "Song Sung Blue" or "Desiree" or (my personal favorite) "Cracklin' Rosie"? To me "Sweet Caroline" is like Billy Joel's "Piano Man": overplayed and overrated.

Speaking of overplayed and overrated, Rahm Emanuel lives to walk another day as Mayor of Chicago? Insert eye roll here.
