That pretty much matches my opinons. Riding the Tiger just doesnt flow, or emote as well as Fair is the Blossom or No Quarter. It almost feels like it was
included only so they'd have one from Manticore, one from Grayson, and one from Haven's povs.....
event (her challenging Burdette in Flag In Exile), which I assume would be primarily known among the Graysons rather
than Manticore.
Riding The Tiger, incidentally, seems to lack any real....emotive as you noted. Fair is obviously a dirge of sorts,
No Quarter is obviously defiant and angry...RtT, however, lacks a real musical "mood" that implies the sort
of self-detrimental ironic humor the song's lyrics portray.
