I haven't seen too much love for the song here but man oh man, REAL LIFE is such a good pop song. I've been running old songs through a digital app that removes the drums, bass and strings etc and I'm picking up on a lot of subtle production stuff I missed. The strings in the verse that pan left and right back to back mirror the "Yeah" "Yeah" "Yeah" "Yeah" Beatles-y backing vocals in the bridge, blew me away.

And that bridge, so damn good. The box set version stripped it of all it's pop shmaltz and made it so ordinary sounding.
