Least harmonically complex song of the eleven, "Faith, Boy" was comparable to the others in its odd-beat rhythms, Dave's lively bass work and the ethereal heights of Jonn's keyboards. It was, and yet wasn't, straight-ahead. Deducing an Irish influence, however, would be inaccurate.

"None of us knew much about Gaelic folk music — other than that one could approximate it with a certain reliance on roots and fifths, and so 'Faith, Boy' was indirectly and mostly unconsciously of that manner. But looking more closely, the vocal arrangements, especially in the refrain, come off rhythmically like a jig."
