No...because it sounds like a really bad b-side. It doesn't even sound like she's using a real piano -- it sounds like it's a synth. Actually, come to think about it, most of the instruments in the song sound synthesized. The melody is ugly. The chorus is SUPER annoying. Born to be...at least it makes me feel like I'm in Torino--right in the middle of the action. That song makes me smile. WINGS makes me cringe. I don't like it all. She had better songs than WINGS on EXODUS. It might've sounded better if it was done unplugged, but otherwise, it sounds very FAKE. Even though Startin' and Born to be...are synthesized too, I like the distinct rock feel of Startin' and the Taiko of Born to be... Born to be...sounds more real/live than WINGS.
