The two Steely Dan songs the band can’t stand: “It’s been played so much”
“I think it’s ‘well-written,’ but it’s so simple”.
Donald Fagen
The 1980 Steely Dan and Mark Knopfler song that ended in tears: “A strange experience”
Loveable misanthropes.
The one singer Donald Fagen wished he could be: “I’m really envious”
Having the best of both worlds.
The 1972 hit Steely Dan song Donald Fagen couldn’t stand: “Not very sophisticated”
The first taste of complexity.
The musicians who made Steely Dan sound like no one else: “Most pop music, nothing much happens”
A perfect playlist too.
