s/t has the better songs but they are actual pop songs with logical progressions, as opposed to Contact where they seem to lose control of everything. even on I Have Known Love there are all those weird repeated lines, and the melody sometimes doesn't quite fit the meter - a lot of the songs come off like it's only the first or second time they're playing it. on Fantasies that might even be true. I love how Simeon gives all these directions to Taylor during the song, and at one point completely flubs the lyrics because he can't read his handwriting
