Was just listening to 'Wings of Love', the titular track to recently released album of Shuggie Otis songs from his "lost years", which opens w. seagull effects .... Starbreaker came instantly to mind!

Hmm, different approach, I dunno that I would say that I like one or the other better -- Daltry's "Show Go On" and "Annie" or the originals. Pratt had the hook of singing the "They call me Avenging Annie" in a falsetto first-person. Daltry's people changed it to "They call her ... "
