I really can't put my finger on why I love this song the way I do.
its awesomeness, perhaps?
Yeah, but what makes it so awesome? It just is but can't explain it. Maybe The Equaliser just doesn't need an explanation.
It's a reggae song that features a violin, which is more than rare. That's why I like it anyway.

Def part of it. Plus Joe’s fucked up double tracked vocal is so weird.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Both as Kory and matedog have suggested. Unusual track and all the better for it.
