It depends on the preferences of the person I try to "bring across", but I
usually choose "Only the Lonely" because I find it quite introductory in terms
of the Nick/Nat-relationship as well as Nick's quest.
However, I'm quite aware that Lacroix and Janette are missing in this one. So
I continue with 2nd season "Hunted" or "Father's Day" for further education.

Subject: Long Cool Woman
I was listening to an oldies station while going
over some FK stuff and noticed that with a
few word changes here and there that -
wow: Janette! I can just see her at the bar at
the Raven in one of those dresses and her long
black gloves . . . .

LONG COOL WOMAN AT THE RAVEN
Saturday night I was downtown
Working for the Toronto P.D.
Sitting in the back of the Raven
Whiskey and blood a-piling high
Blood-drinkin' boozers on the west side
Full of creatures who are doing wrong
Just about to call up the Captain man
When I heard this Janette sing a song
A pair of 45s made me open my eyes
My temperature started to rise
She was a long cool woman in a black dress
Just-a 5'3", beautiful, tall
With just one look, I was a bad mess
'Cause that woman from the Raven had it all
I saw her heading to the table
Like a tall walking big black cat
When Charlie said I hope that you're able boy
'Cause I'm telling you she knows where it's at
Then suddenly we heard the sirens
And everybody started to run
A-jumping out of doors and tables
When I heard somebody shooting a gun
Well the Captain was pumping my left hand
And a-she was a-holding my right
Well I told her don't get scared
'Cause we-a won't be snared
I've gotta be forgiving if I wanna spend my living
With a long cool woman in a black dress
Just a 5'3 beautiful, tall
Yeah, just one look, I was a bad mess
'Cause that Janette at the Raven had it all
Had it all.....
