Stoicism is special. Most Ringo songs are straight out let's put together some instruments and record it kind of song, but Stoicism is the let's fool around with the studio equipment and see what we can get kind of song. There're a lot of very fun rhythmic things going on in the song, like the distorted syncopated beats and the "diminishing breaks" (for lack of better description) in the voice part; all the impulses fit in seamlessly to form a playful, fun and energetic song. I guess I'm in the minority here, but hearing this on SS was a pleasant surprise. I definitely think this is one of her more successful experimentations, and I don't think it's out of character at all.
