Which song do you like better, Make Way For The Lady or No Mistake About It? Mine is gonna half to be "Make Way For The Lady". I don't know why, I just think it's a better song is all.

To me they're completely different songs. My take on Make Way for the Lady is that if you're looking for a special someone you need to get out of your own way before he/she can even show up. "Anytime you get lonely You just got to turn it around."

I got the sense that Lightfoot felt he knew how to turn that faucet off and on And maybe he did/does. Wish he's teach me.

No Mistake About It is about the kind of women who are predators. And of course they're usually stunningly gorgeous too damn them. Think Black Widow.

I think they're both nice little lite-jazz numbers that you can't help but listen to! I'd say they're almost perfectly equal,with the slight edge going to "Lady". Hey,it's a classic! (Then again "Mistake" will be that in it's own time.)
