"Medicine Show" is blueprint BAD. Over the top and complete fun.

I sat thinking about this one for 5 long minutes then voted off V13. That harmonica at the start of Medicine Show still sends shivers up my spine as the drums kick in. A genuinely funny lyric married to one of Mick's best tunes, it can do no wrong.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Voted for V13 last round so obviously will do so again here. Medicine Show is the platonic ideal of a BAD song. Still exciting, fun and inspiring after all these listens.

Mick hit a real homerun on album 1, side 1, song 1. What a song.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

Medicine Show vs. E=MC^2 was a lot closer than this is shaping up to be.

Medicine Show has too much power and is a justified winner of these survivor polls. One hell of a song.

Have you heard the Rick Rubin remix? Even better in my opinion...

Found it on YouTube, was good until the vocals came in, totally out of synch. Assuming it is the video and not the actual remix, I'd be interested to hear the proper mix.
